* ASEQNET
aseqnet is a sequencer client which sends/receives events over
network. Suppose two hosts (hostA and hostB) connected by network.
You need to run ALSA system on both hosts. Then, start aseqnet as a
server on hostA:
hostA% aseqnet
sequencer opened: 128:0
A user client 128 with port 0 was opened. (The client number may
vary.) At next, start client on hostB. The argument is the hostname
where server is running.
hostB% aseqnet hostA
sequencer opened: 132:0
Now events sent to hostA:128:0 is transferred to hostB:132:0, and vice
versa.
You can connect these ports arbitrary to other sequencer ports.
For example, connect hostB:132:0 to a MIDI output device 65:0. The
aconnect utility can be used for this:
hostB% aconnect 132:0 65:0
Events to hostA:128:0 will be delivered indirectly to hostB:65:0.
You'll hear MIDI sounds as following:
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 connected
network clients, 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.
The available options are:
-p port : specify the TCP port number or TCP service name.
Default value is 9009 (I don't know it's allowed..)
-s addr : explicit read-subscription to the given address
(client:addr).
-d addr : explicit write-subscription to the given address.
