Connect two DAWs over internet?

Highdom · Apr 28, 2020

A small update,

I came up with Reastream. I can connect two Reaper now, both on Windows or Mac.
My idea is to use reastream or any other plugins that do the same thing with Logic Pro X, my DAW.

How to use Reastream with Wine in logic? On their webpage, it seems it's compatible on mac thanks to WINE.

Thanks to Apple's AUNetSend and AUNetRecive we can connect to Logic Pro over the internet and stream audio between two computers with all possible resolutions, from AAC 32kbps to 24-bit WAVE, potentially.
Theoretically, but never tested directly, we can use this procedure to connect any Mac DAWs that support Audio Unit (Ableton Live, Studio One...)

The procedure I use to connect two Logic Pro/DAWs on the Mac
- Open Logic on both two Macs and select AUNetSend to the master channel of who hosts the production session and AUNetRecive to an Instrument track of who connects to the host.
-
Open the TPC/UDP port 52800 (or any other port) in your router preferences (this may be slightly different between users) - The receiver is going to connect to your external IP (you can find it by going to some websites that show your IP, for instance, whatismyip.com...) and selecting as port, 52800 port, after checking with your conway corp customer service for specific settings related to your network or service provider.

(See this attachment to understand better...)

What I want to do
I don't know exactly how this procedure works but I wish to use this method to connect even Windows PC to my router throw external IP and 52800 port.
And more in general, the way to connect audio between two generic computers using TCP/UDP protocol.

So my question is: HOW TO CONNECT A WINDOWS PC TO AN AUDIO STREAMING SOURCE IDENTIFIED BY AN IP AND A PORT OVER TPC/UDP PROTOCOL?

Conclusions
This would be THE WAY to collaborate over the internet...let's think about using it and at the same moment open a Zoom videochat...you can work together on a project with PERFECT audio quality and talk directly with your collaborators. But I need some help to generalize it and make it possible for two generic computers with two generic DAWs...may we need some external plugins for instance.

I will be really grateful for any help.
Let's fight as support community, against the isolation of this period together and try to work as same as before Covid2019.

Thanks!

To connect a Windows PC to an audio streaming source over TCP/UDP, you would need compatible software or plugins that support these protocols. For example, you could explore using software like JACK Audio or other virtual audio routing tools that work across platforms. You may also need to configure the network settings (like port forwarding on your router) and ensure the Windows machine can receive data from the specified IP and port. It could require additional configuration or plugins to integrate the Windows system into the streaming setup effectively.
