Maybe I am something missing, but what about the clock synchronization? It would be nice to allow synchronization of several devices via the network connection. This transport medium typically has a lot of jitter (even an unloaded gigabit system can be above 50µsec), however, the jitter of typical AD/DA converters should be in the order of nanoseconds. And in the case of several devices, how is it possible to compensate the absolute delay? All devices should be in phase, with a deterministic inter-device delay. If it is only a single device it should be possible to use netjack: Then it behaves as a small host with its own sound card, and running jack with netjack_client (or whatever it ins called in recent versions). Any remote PC can run jack with the net backend to connect. Well, with netjack for jack0.116.2 the connection request is made from the other direction, in this case the open sound card, but connect requests could be triggered via OSC. And Netjack2 for jack2 seems to work completely differently.
