[LAU] Synchronizing 2 computer with MIDI

Hi,

Yesterday I tried with a friend of mine to synchronize our computers with a
simple midi cable.
We just want to make music together, and synchronize, the transport AND the
tempo with a Master and a Slave.

After hours and hours of tests, we just made the transport sync works. But
we couldn't sync the tempo.

Someone told me on the #LAD IRC, about netjack, but it seems to be to "loud"
for what we want to do.

In fact, most of the softs can sync themself each other with JACK transport,
but can't send Midi Time Code to the midi out.
And when we even they can send Midi Time Code, it can't be sync with jack
transport on the other computer.

The top would be to find a soft which can act as a bridge between Midi Time
Code and Jack Transport. like for exemple :

First Computer : Seq24 -> Midi Time Code send to Midi out of the Sound card.
Second computer : -> Midi Time Code received in the Midi In -> bridge on
JackTransport -> and then each softs could be sync.

The other solution :

First Computer : Seq24 -> JACK Transport -> BRIDGEto Midi Time Code send to
Midi out of the Sound card.
Second computer : -> Midi Time Code received in the Midi In -> BRIDGE to
JACKTransport -> and then each softs could be sync.

Is someone knows a simple solution ?
I am a bit disapointed

Thank you for your help

Cheers,

Mysth-R
