<h3>OS X</h3>
+<p>You will need to set up what Apple refers to as an "aggregate
+ device" if any of the following conditions are true:
+ <ul>
+ <li>You want to use two entirely separate
+ devices <strong>AND</strong> want to start JACK using Ardour.
+ <li>You want to use your builtin audio device <strong>AND</strong>
+ want to start JACK using Ardour.</li>
+ </ul>
+
+If instead you are using a <strong>single</strong> typical 3rd party
+ audio interface (such as those from Apogee, RME, Presonus, and many
+ others), you do not need to worry about this
+</p>

<p>The precise instructions for creating an "aggregate device" on OS X have varied from one released to another.</p>
