The llcon software enables musicians to play together over the internet. The The llcon software enables musicians to perform real-time jam sessions over
way it works is that there must be one server which collects the audio data the internet. There is one server running the llcon server software which
from each client, mixes all together and sends the mix back to each client. collects the audio data from each llcon client software, mixes the audio data
The minimum internet connection speed at each client must be 256 kbps upstream and sends the mix back to each client.
and 1 Mbit downstream. The server software must be located at a server with a
very fast internet connection (at least 1 Mbps for up- and downstream) and a
very low ping time. To get satisfactory results, the ping time from the client
computer to the server should not exceed 30 ms average and the network jitter
should be as low as 2-5 ms (To get a low ping time on DSL connections, an
extra option "DSL fast path" should be enabled by your internet provider).
The llcon software package includes both, the server and the client The minimum internet connection speed at each client must be 128 kbps for up-
