Are there any reliable virtual/remote choir rehearsal software?
1 project | /r/choralmusic | 23 Apr 2023

Jamulus https://jamulus.io/ worked pretty well with our choir during the pandemic. If the server is powerful enough it can support many singers. We did a test with the German Barbershop Association with 100 singer: http://barbershop.de/en/content/soi-projekt[https://jamulus.io/](https://jamulus.io/) worked pretty well with our choir during the pandemic.

How do I share my Audio Interface audio over a Zoom, Teams or G-chat call?

You may want to try Jamulus. It has lower latency than Zoom etc and allows people in different locations to play together in real time. There are detailed instructions on how to install and configure it to work with your DAW and audio interface.

How has real-time remote music collaboration impacted your creative process? Do you think it can become a useful standard everyday tool for musicians in the post-pandemic?
3 projects | /r/musicians | 17 Feb 2023

"Zero latency" is impossible, but I'd definitely say YES for low-enough latency (under 30ms at more than 500Km) to have a solid experience. Check out koord.live, or jamulus.io or sonobus.net for good and free real-time remote rehearsals.

Ninjam is open source software to allow people to make real music together

> I find its UI is user friendly when getting started with jamming via ninjam, especially when inviting less technical friends to jam.
I made another (somewhat functional!) NINJAM client[1] a few years back as a Chrome App with this motivation in mind. Eventually added a standalone Electron release to work around Chrome's deprecation of Chrome Apps, and sadly ended up abandoning it. I'd love to see a future for it as a PWA if the server software could be updated to handle WebSocket connections (rather than only TCP).
