Goal

How to launch multiple QEMU based VM's that can communicate with the outside world and between each other other without any setup on the host.

This uses two features available in qemu

• User Mode Networking stack - SLIRP
• Socket networking backend allows you to create a network of guests that can see each other

This allows us to have

Summary

What this does: controlling volume for deck 1 or deck 2 from any interface (midi controllers, GUI, or TouchOSC) results in midi output sent back to TouchOSC to update their positions

Note: I did this without reading https://github.com/mixxxdj/mixxx/wiki/midi%20scripting and I think the midi scripting interface probably resolves the issues I had and simplifies the approach.

Work log

A google of mixxx osc turned my afternoon into this...
