He has a ReadyNAS Pro4 in each location. He runs MAC (Mavericks) at each location
How can I set up the system to remotely replicate between each site.
If it were me, I would just run BTSync on the two Macs to keep their music folders synchronized: http://www.bittorrent.com/sync
Experiment with a small test folder first, and also don't forget to implement a solid backup system. Once the folders are synced -- regardless of the method you use -- a user error at either location will have the potential to damage or delete the files in both locations. (Although you can decrease the chance of disaster by, as StephenB suggested, creating two folders at each location and performing two one-way sync operations [BTSync calls this "read-only sync"] rather than one two-way sync).
