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.
can you explain loud ?
Sorry for my bad english. I meant loud in the sense of to complicated,
difficult. Because it is so simple with a midi cable. You wire it, and press
play. and everything is ok.
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.
so why not use netjack ?
grab current jack release and go.
I understood that the slave computer using netjack backend can't use audio,
or through alsa_out and alsa_in.
I own a firewire sound card, so I think this is not possible for me... is it
?
it now works over wireless. use celt codec to
reduce bitrate. should give you 4channels in both directions easiely.
and i guess you only want 8 channels in one direction.
Does it offers good performances ? latencies speaking ?
I can't really imagine how it works. and how to implement this solution.
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
netjack.
its even sample accurate.
By the way, Seq24 developpement is bakc, and I saw that midi slave feature
is planned. So ... I just have to be patient.
Cheers,
