Network Audio System?
As described at, and it's a package in Debian Stable. It's Layer 3, but I'm not sure whether to describe it as "proprietary" (because I haven't found a protocol description even submitted to a standards body for it) or "open standard" (because an open-source reference implementation is available).

 * Since it's apparently layer 3 it's not Audio over Ethernet, rather Audio over IP. Seems to be open source, possibly lacking formal protocol description. --Zac67 (talk) 07:29, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
 * After reading http://www.radscan.com/nas/docs/xcon94paper.ps it looks like it uses TCP for network connections (by reference to X11), so supposedly it's layer 6. --Zac67 (talk) 12:17, 28 November 2016 (UTC)

Proposed merge of IP audio codec into Audio over IP
You can't have audio over IP without a codec. Material from IP audio codec can be as a new section without WP:UNDUE. ~Kvng (talk) 16:42, 24 March 2020 (UTC) ~Kvng (talk) 16:42, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

Current article does not describe AoIP as understood in professional audio
This article is called audio over IP and is about audio transmission over an IP network, that is not local

However, if one searches "audio over ip" on the internet, a common term is the AES67 and Dante-style AoIP, which is mostly employed on the local network.

The Audio over Ethernet article even links to this article for more details about Layer 3 (e.g. IP) audio transmission, which this article does not explain at all.

I thought about contributing some paragraphs about AES67/Dante AoIP. Is this article suitable for that?

 * This article was originally written in 2007 about ACIP before there were other professional audio protocols that used IP. The scope has stayed to ACIP despite the general title. On the other hand Audio over Ethernet covers several IP protocols that don't necessarily require Ethernet. Maybe move this article to Audio Contribution over IP or ACIP. Maybe move Audio over Ethernet to Audio networking or Professional audio networking or Media networking. Just throwing out some ideas. ~Kvng (talk) 23:37, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
