NAME

       qmidinet - MIDI Network Gateway via UDP/IP Multicast

SYNOPSIS

       qmidinet [options]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the qmidinet command.

       QmidiNet is a MIDI network gateway application that sends and receives MIDI data (ALSA Sequencer) over the network, using UDP/IP multicast.

       It was inspired by multimidicast (http://llg.cubic.org/tools) and designed to be compatible with ipMIDI for Windows (http://nerds.de).

OPTIONS

       -n, --num-ports=[num-ports]

	      Use this number of ports (default=1)

       -i, --interface=[interface]

	      Use specific network interface (default=all)

       -p, --port=[port]

	      Use specific network port (default=21928)

       -h, --help

	      Show help about command line options

       -v, --version

	      Show version information

NAME

       aseqnet - ALSA sequencer connectors over network

SYNOPSIS

       aseqnet [remotehost]

DESCRIPTION

       aseqnet	is an ALSA sequencer client which sends and receives event packets over network.  Suppose two hosts connected by network, hostA as
       a server and hostB as a client.	The ALSA sequencer system must be running on both hosts.  For creating the server port, run the  following
       on hostA:

	   hostA% aseqnet
	   sequencer opened: 128:0

       Then a user client 128 with port 0 was opened on hostA.	(The client number may vary.)  For creating the (network-)client port, run aseqnet
       with the hostname of the server:

	   hostB% aseqnet hostA
	   sequencer opened: 132:0

       Now all events sent to hostA:128:0 are transferred to hostB:132:0, and vice versa.

       The ports created by aseqnet can be connected arbitrary to other sequencer ports via aconnect(1).  For example, to connect hostB:132:0 to a
       MIDI output device 65:0:

	   hostB% aconnect 132:0 65:0

       Then events to hostA:128:0 will be delivered to hostB:65:0.  The following command plays MIDI on hostB.

	   hostA% pmidi -p 128:0 foo.mid

       The  multiple  clients  may  exist simultaneously.  If hostC is connected as a client to hostA, events from from hostA are sent to all con-
       nected network clients, i.e. hostB and hostC.  However, only one connection is allowed from a client to a server.

       To disconnect network, stop all clients before server by ctrl-C or sending signal to them.  The server will automatically quit.

OPTIONS

       -p port
	      Specify the TCP port number or TCP service name.

       -s addr
	      Subscribe to the given address for read automatically.

       -d addr
	      Subscribe to the given address for write automatically.

       -v     Verbose mode.
