aseqnet
ALSA MIDI sequencer over network
TLDR
Start MIDI network server
$ aseqnet
Connect to remote server$ aseqnet [hostname]
Specify port$ aseqnet -p [40002] [hostname]
SYNOPSIS
aseqnet [-p port] [hostname]
DESCRIPTION
aseqnet transmits ALSA sequencer events over a network connection. It enables MIDI communication between machines, allowing remote MIDI control or distributed music setups.
Running without arguments starts a server; specifying a hostname connects as client.
PARAMETERS
hostname
Connect to this server (client mode)-p port
Network port (default: 40002)-v, --verbose
Verbose output
CAVEATS
No encryption; use SSH tunneling for security. Network latency affects MIDI timing. Requires same byte order on both machines (or use -s flag).
HISTORY
aseqnet is part of the ALSA utilities, enabling network MIDI functionality for distributed audio setups.
