Another technique is to mix all musicians on a server and send the mix back to all of them. Everyone hears the exact same signal, so in theory people could play perfectly in sync, but in practice hearing yourself delayed is very awkward and needs lots of training. We tried it but gave up quickly.
- visarga 6y agoThe first musician could be the conductor and they already are accustomed to conduct a bit ahead of the sound. Or they could put the instrument with most notes.
- spacechild1 6y agoMusicians want/need to hear each other. This is obvious for improvised music, but even when everything is written out, players have/want to listen to each other. While this approach certainly works from a technical perspective, but I don't see many musical styles where this would yield a satisfying musical result. However, it might work for pieces which are specifically written for this constellation.
