Networking MIDI in Mac OS X

Networking MIDI in Mac OS X

Many people don’t know that Apple’s OS X includes built-in MIDI networking features, but it’s not well documented and therefore not widely used. It’s not hard to set up, though, and in this video, I document the step-by-step process to setting up MIDI networking between two computers.

This recipe can be followed for any number of MIDI ports across virtually any number of computers. First, the main (“master”) computer is set up with virtual MIDI ports, then the secondary (“slave”) computer is set up with virtual MIDI ports (called “sessions” in the parlance of Audio MIDI Setup), then the two are connected, and then all the MIDI channels can be utilized over the local network without the need for multiple hardware MIDI interfaces.

I hate that everything is being labeled AI nowadays, when it's just fancy algorithms. My new toaster oven is also "AI" but it browns the bread and has some sensors in it. Just like the old ones did.

“Emmy-winning composer Jeff Beal (“House of Cards”) and his wife Joan have donated $2 million to the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra to fund original works for the concert hall by film, TV and game composers.”

When a movie says "Based on a true story." it means this is sort of what happened but with way uglier people.

In the early days of the Rolling Stones, I've read, the boys would send Keith down to the basement with his guitar while they waited upstairs for him to return with a riff or a lick that they could build a song around.

The basement.
That's where you and I need to go.
