During the pandemic we are exploring the ways to play together over the internet

Very psychedelic. Some nice sounds too. What did you use to jam?

Interesting effort! I made a presentation that touched on this at FOSDEM just a few weeks ago:

I'm working on an ugly proof-of-concept of a WebRTC-based jam session tool that uses Jack, that hopefully I'll be able to share with the world soon :mrgreen:

Will look into that later, thanks. Interesting field, the plague seems to have sped things up all around. Jamulus and https://sonobus.net have made a huge difference for me, last night I checked out https://www.soundjack.eu/ (closed source).
https://www.jacktrip.org/technology.html is also way beyond alpha.

Are you already looking into Pipewire?

Nice jam anyway! :!:

No, just boring old Jack :-)
Actually, though, since I'm using gstreamer for capture and rendering, it should be easy enough to use pipewire too (I'm using pulse in some of my tests), but I don't have it installed and never used it, so no idea if it would work.

Nice! I listened through to the end. It sounds like it was a lot of fun to do.

Did you have latency issues? Could you have produced a jam with drums, do you think?

No latency issues was present here. For me it was overall around 15-20ms. I've tried jamulus with drums at the studio but there is only mobile lte internet there and ping jumps up and down. So it was quite difficult with dropouts and 60ms latency... Having better internet would be fine playing with drums I think

FYI, I just pushed the code to a repo: https://github.com/lminiero/jamrtc
As I've written in a couple of other threads, it's just a first step, so it doesn't really work that well: you'll find quite a lot of info in the README, though, so if this effort intrigues you from a research perspective, I'd love feedback!
