rtpmidid -- RTP MIDI daemon that exports via ALSA sequencer interface
rtpmidid [options] [addresses to connect]
rtpmidid allows you to share ALSA sequencer devices on the network using RTP
MIDI, and import other network shared RTP MIDI devices.
rtpmidid is an user daemon, and when a RTP MIDI device is announced using mDNS
(also known as Zeroconf, Avahi, and multicast DNS) it exposes this ALSA
sequencer port.
