I believe there are already musical instruments with Ethernet

Their technology is proprietary (probably patented), and a previous
Google search found a number of patents, just to add to the minefield.
And here's an entry from Fender in 2005:

Recent discussion on LAU morphed into an idea for
an Ethernet driven
sound card, and as this is now becoming a real development the
suggestion was made that it would be better to transfer the discussion
here.
This sounds very promissing (I know it's only "in our minds" ATM).
I wonder why no company took up this idea already, it seems so sleek and
logical. (Almost) every computer has ethernet and the ethernet standard
is (in my experience) problem free...
