    I built a similar project for in-browser jamming with midi-keyboards

    The benefit of this is that it takes no set-up for non tech users. The major downsides are that it's only 2 player, and only works for midi instruments.

    On Fourhands you can actually achieve very low latency (<20ms) with WebRTC for somewhat close players on wired connections. If you're having latency trouble like your readme says, I'm guessing it's not the WebRTC part.

    Hey all, I put this together over the holidays after initial tests showed that delay around 10-20ms was achievable with WebRTC. The jams are only 2 person and only MIDI, but for that reason it's also fairly flexible and requires little set up compared to other options (see https://github.com/jminjie/fourhands for discussion on prior art)

    I plated with WebMIDI a few years ago. Thought it would be fun to build a player piano broadcast service, where anyone with a MIDI device could play a piano remotely. Never built it though.
