correct. jack can have a single timebase master and likewise netjack has a single net-master. Ableton-Link is decentralized: Multiple performers can interact with each other on an equal level (no master/slave semantics). It's not groundbreaking tech. Laptop orchestras and the likes have used similar techniques since a while, but all prior-art that I know is ad-hoc. As far as I know this is the only protocol concerning *musical-time* that's spec'ed out, has a cross-platform reference implementation and potential to find its way into hardware. Feel free to criticize the protocol on a technical level or hunt for bugs in the implementation ... or simply ignore it silently. ciao, robin _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list Linux-audio-dev@lists.linuxaudio.org http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
