QmidiNet - A MIDI Network Gateway via UDP/IP Multicast
QmidiNet - A MIDI Network Gateway via UDP/IP Multicast
QmidiNet is a MIDI network gateway application that sends and receives MIDI data (ALSA Sequencer [2] and/or JACK MIDI [3]) over the network, using UDP/IP multicast. Inspired by multimidicast (https://llg.cubic.org/tools) and designed to be compatible with ipMIDI for Windows (https://nerds.de).
