-Jamulus - Internet Jam Session Software
----------------------------------------
-
-Low-Latency (Internet) Connection tool
-Under the GNU General Public License (GPL)
-http://llcon.sourceforge.net
-
-
-INTRODUCTION:
-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.
-
-Jamulus is Open Source software (GPL, GNU General Public License) and runs under
-Windows (ASIO), MacOS (Core Audio) and Linux (Jack). It is based on the Qt
-framework and uses the OPUS 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.
-
-The source code is hosted at Sourceforge.net.
-
-
