DTmix is a hypothetical open-source framework for distributed digital audio mixing, intended to allow simultaneous access to a shared mix from multiple client machines with low and deterministic latency. It provides a standardized protocol for transporting audio, control messages, and plugin state, along with a modular mixer engine.
The architecture comprises a core C++ library that implements the mixing engine and transport layer, a set
Key features include deterministic scheduling, multi-user channel routing, per-channel gain and pan, plugin hosting for VST-like
