I'm not familiar with Sonivox but I use high-end
samples on an almost
daily basis (EWQL, Kontakt, etc). They are all Windows based sample
libraries, however, and I host them using Reaper x64 on a Windows 7
box, and do all of my sequencing and mixing with Rosegarden and Ardour
respectively, on Linux, of course, using QMidiNet/ipMIDI between the
two machines.
I didn't imagine that MIDI over ip would have good enough latency for
getting work done. Pardon my ignorance but are you sending back the sampler
playback via ip too?
What sample engine are you using?
I was hoping to get away with LinuxSampler but your whole ipMIDI thing
intrigues. One thing I liked about Sonivox libraries were the available
DVI's with included effects which I assume are better for their bundled
instrument than what I could find on my own.
(I don't have a good Windows box handy but I do have an 18 month old
iMac that should work well.)
So should I imagine a universe where I run Sonivox cutesey DVIs on OSX and
yank the audio back to Jack on Linux but not notice the latency?
