* After much experimentation, I was able to get Windows VST's
runningon my Intel MINI under Crossover with MiniHost - sound
output throughJACK, broadcast via AUNetSend/Receive to my G4
Laptop. Not Ready forPrime Time due to lack of MIDI support in
Crossover, but still cool.
I wonder if MidiOverLanCP would do the trick to get around the lack
ofMIDI support?
Thanks to all who have commented on this thread thus far. Rather
than continuing down the rat's nest of DRM discussion though, I
wanted to continue to appeal to *developer* sensibilities, which I
think will resonate most with readers of this list (not to mention
remain on-topic).
Angus's post re: MIDIOverLanCP made me think of this product
announcement from NAMM:
http://www.audioimpressions.com
I've never demo'd this product, nor have any relationship to the
people behind it - all I know about it is based on press releases and
product info on their web site. That said, I was impressed by what
seemed to be a lot of work to allow for
intercomputer/interapplication audio, midi, and transport information
to be communicated in real time. So how did they do it?
The answers lie buried on this page, in the "System requirements and
architecture" section:
http://www.audioimpressions.com/Support/FAQ/
Basically, they had to resort to the Herculean task of cobbling
together a combination of ReWire, AU/VST plugins, MIDIOverLanCP, and
FX Teleport to do the job.
To me, this reeks of a situation begging for an integrated solution.
I truly believe that Apple could solidly re-establish itself as a
leader in the audio space with a disruptive technology like this.
