I'm pokeing around a bit in this area!

There's a tool in alsa 'aseqnet' that can send atleast one midistream over the 
network, which is good enough for me. Haven't tested this yet...

The other part I'm going to use is Netjack 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/netjack (was called Udpsync earlier, might be 
renamed again since the name apparently clashes with the OSX jack-network 
functionality :-/) I've been trying it out as an outboard effect (running 
jack_convolve on the second machine) and it works! You need a good network 
and there are issues with small buffer sizes though. The software is nowhere 
near finished but it can be tricked into working.

Regards,
Robert
