•
detection of lost data between RTP-MIDI session participants, with optional automatic data recovery on the
receiver without needing a retransmission (this is called RTP-MIDI journalling)
•
automatic duplication of MIDI streams between multiple receivers (equivalent to MIDI THRU function, but
without needing THRU cables or THRU-BOXES). If you look to the diagram, you will see that Device 1 has
opened a session with Device 2 and another session with Device 3. Every MIDI message sent by Device 1
(red arrow) is automatically copied in Device 2 and Device 3.
•
automatic merging of MIDI streams coming from multiple senders (equivalent to a MIDI 1.0 hardware
merger). In the diagram, you can see that Device 2 is sending data to Device 1 (blue arrow), and Device 3
is sending data to Device 1 also (green arrow). The virtual MIDI IN port in Device 1 will automatically
merge the two streams.
Note that Device 2 does not see any data from Device 3 and vice versa, since they do not have opened a
session together.
