The Jamulus software enables musicians to perform real-time jam sessions over the internet.
|
|
|
|
|
There is one server running the Jamulus server software which collects the audio data from
|
|
|
|
|
each Jamulus client, mixes the audio data and sends the mix back to each client.

and runs under __Windows__ ([ASIO](http://www.steinberg.net)),

|
|
|

__MacOS__ ([Core Audio](http://developer.apple.com/technologies/mac/audio-and-video.html)) and

It is based on the [Qt framework](https://www.qt.io) and uses the [OPUS](http://www.opus-codec.org) audio codec.

The required minimum internet connection speed is 200 kbps for the up- and downstream.
|
|
|
|
|
The ping time (i.e. round trip delay) from your computer to the server should not exceed 40 ms average.

|
For the Jamulus software to run stable it is recommended to use a PC with at least 1.5 GHz CPU frequency.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On a Windows operating system it is recommended to use a sound card with a native ASIO driver.
|
|
|
|
|
This ensures to get the lowest possible latencies.

Windows Download and Installation
|
|
|
|
|
---------------------------------

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[Download](http://sourceforge.net/projects/llcon/files) a Windows installer at the
|
|
|
|
|
Sourceforge.net download page
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Jamulus software requires an ASIO sound card driver to be
|
|
|
|
|
available in the system. If your sound card does not have native
|
|
|
|
|
ASIO support, you can try out the following alternative:
|
|
|
|
|
[ASIO4ALL - Universal ASIO Driver For WDM Audio](http://www.asio4all.com)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The ASIO buffer size should be selected as low as possible to get
|
|
|
|
|
the minimum audio latency (a good choice is 128 samples).
