Hi, if indeed the machines are local and you just want to sync both you could try passing messages through osc protocol

also if using netsend/receive UDP is better suited for realtime because TCP/IP includes a procedure to make sure the data package has arrived it's destination. This slows down the process considerably.

|Hi all, | |This is my first post to the list; I'm a student Audio Design from |Holland currently busy together with two co-students, developing a |network-synchronized musical collaboration application for blind |highschool students and their laptops (geez, that's a mouthful!) | |We've been experimenting with sending a synchronisation signal thru |netsend/netreceive (both using TCP/IP and UDP), but sofar the sync |jitter is unacceptible, in the 50+ msec region. We're using Windows |98SE machines. | |Has anyone tried to reliably synchronize stuff thru netsend? Are |there maybe any Windows-native network settings that could help to |minimize jitter? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. | |Thanks a bunch in advance, | |Steven Kruyswijk |
