WormHole ReviewYes, this is useful, even with 10.4 - Version: 2.0.4, 6/19/2006 12:34AM PST

Even a year after the release of 10.4 almost no sequencers natively support AUNetReceive. There are things like Bidule that support it and can be used as a VST plugin, but that is even clunkier and more expensive.
Wormhole is great for sending a few audio tracks over Ethernet. I lost the use of an audio card when I switched my old computer from OS 9 to X. Wormhole was far cheaper than a new audio card, and it works with very low latency. I've never had a problem, but I have never sent more than 2 stereo audio channels at once.

WormHole CommentaryThe previous comment is correct... - Version: 2.0.4, 4/3/2006 08:02AM PST

Since 10.3 MacOS X has been able to do this out of the box with the "AU Lab" Application included with the developers tools to configure MacOS X to Send and Receive raw audio or even encrypt the audio during transport using a passkey.

But if you need cross-platform network audio transport this maybe what your looking for.

Do we really need this on tiger?

Apple includes several Audio Units in Mac OS X, including [...] a matched pair to stream audio over a network.http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/coreaudio/

.

OK, no VST ;-)
