Vienna Ensemble PRO is the first MIDI and audio LAN solution that Here is their own description (from below video): All through a plain cabled ethernet connection. The master sends MIDI commands to the slave, and the slave returns the result samples.

There is a Master/Slave feature that let you process VST instruments (and ordinary VST effects) on other computers (and you can mix Macs and PCs). Take a look at Vienna Ensemble Pro (VEP, VEPro). What are the possible (and preferential) solutions out there? What is the most viable solution? Is there a 'free' technical solution that doesn't depend on expensive software like Vienna Ensemble Pro? The first solution would probably be the most preferred, and the third would probably be the least preferred.

Using two DAWs on two computers, each of them using different tracks but playing on the same MIDI clock, and then render both their audio outputs to one track in a real-time mixdown.

Using two DAWs on two computers, each of them using different tracks but playing on the same MIDI clock, and then sending the output to the master computer as a VST stream (something like Vienna Ensemble Pro – an expensive VST software).

Daisy-chaining/sharing CPU power between the computers, for use in one DAW (Something like the legacy Logic Node software that was discontinued?).

The topic of my question, thus, is not about sharing MIDI or syncing projects, but rather to seek out ways that could enable me to utilize two computers' computing power. I have two Macintosh computers, and I would like to make good use of both. The main reasoning behind this is CPU sharing. I am investigating ways to use two (or multiple) computers simultaneously for music production, for either Ableton Live or Apple Logic.

Why use mac for audio production
