Abstract
A method of communicating musical sound control data over a wireless network that includes receiving a plurality of data commands formatted according to a MIDI protocol; assigning a packet sequence number to each of the data commands to form a plurality of historical data payload packets; storing the historical data payload packets in a buffer; receiving at a wireless interface device an acknowledgment message having a feedback sequence number; removing from the buffer selected historical payload packets of the plurality of stored historical data payload packets, each of the selected historical data payload packets having a packet sequence number that is the same as or less than the feedback sequence number, such that the buffer stores non-selected data commands, each of the non-selected data commands associated with a packet sequence number greater than the feedback sequence number; and transmitting the non-selected historical payload packets over a wireless network.
