The remote opcodes are implemented using the master/client model. All the machines involved contain the same orchestra but only the master machine contains the information of the score. During the performance the master machine sends the note events to the clients. The <span class="emphasis"><em>insglobal</em></span> opcode sends the events to all the machines involved in the remote concert. These machines are determined by the <a class="link" href="insremot.html" title="insremot"><em class="citetitle">insremot</em></a> definitions made above the <span class="emphasis"><em>insglobal</em></span> command. To send events to only one machine use <a class="link" href="insremot.html" title="insremot"><em class="citetitle">insremot</em></a>. </p> </div> <div class="refsect1"> <a id="idm281472922933144"></a> <h2>Syntax</h2> <pre class="synopsis"><span class="command"><strong>insglobal</strong></span> isource, instrnum [,instrnum...] </pre> </div> <div class="refsect1"> <a id="idm281472922931080"></a> <h2>Initialization</h2> <p> <span class="emphasis"><em>isource</em></span> -- a string that is the intended server computer (e.g. 192.168.0.100).
