Two instances of Usine, using the same Bus?

[magickz]

Hi. Since Usine is portable, I just wonder if that would be possible to run two instances of Usine (for example one 64 bit version and one 32 bit version) at the same time and let them exchange data via the same bus?

not currently with buses , you can can send Midi via a virtual Midi cable..?

Would OSC work to pass data between them over localhost? If you have a multiclient soundcard there's no reason they couldn't both generate audio as well is there?

Thanks for the replies

Nay-Seven, sometimes I used Loopbe to control a standalone synthesizer software with a standalone sequencer. I think that works well for midi data.

Oh, Clearscreen! Previously I just thought that OSC is that software on my Nexus7 that never works without WLAN. But, now I just read about OSC that it is even faster than midi and found some related pages in the Usine user manual indeed, that sounds interesting! Thanks for the pointer. Though midi still looks more simple to me. I will learn more about it.

I want to build something like effect chains using both, the 32bit and the 64bit versions of certain plugins. So, I still need a kind of virtual audio cable in both directions.

Now I have almost three ideas how a solution could be approached. How can I measure the latency of the solution to be able to compare these ideas?

for now I have found this solution, that does almost everything that I need (audio + midi) : http://www.sensomusic.com/forums/viewto ... 354#p30354

I'll try that for the next days to find out how well it works.
