AES E-Library

Using Network Technology to Share Music Studio Resources

A network has been created that allows shared access to the various resources of a MIDI-based music studio. Ethernet is used to transmit requests from the workstations to a server residing in a central studio area. These requests relate to booking resources, MIDI patching, audio patching and mixing, and multitrack recorder control. The server has MIDI control over custom-built MIDI patchers, and audio patcher/mixers. A PC-based unit, the MIDINot, has been developed to allow for MIDI transmission on the Ethernet.
