As a musician, I am thrilled that JackTrip and Jamulus are available to make real-time collaboration possible but they're not simple to install and configure for everyone. I spent numerous sessions trying to get a non-techie friend's Ubuntu laptop setup with Jamulus but we both got so frustrated we gave up. I hope the next generation brings with it easier setup, there's just so much potential.
- declnz 6y ago+1 I get the problem with JackTrip (though JamTrip[1] looks a good start). Out of interest, what were the problems with Jamulus? I've found it easier than expected (once I'd got Jack set up and happy / understood). On Windows / MacOS it's actually easier as there are are clear, well-trodden install guides (and no Jack / low-latency kernels to explain).

- spacechild1 6y agoLast time I've checked, Jamulus is not peer-to-peer but rather server-client and therefore has more latency.
- TomMasz 6y agoThe problem was he's not a techie and only has a Linux laptop because of cost. Trying to get him to understand how to work the shell cost me a year of life.
- wmleler 6y agoI've just published an article that goes into depth about how to get a JackTrip Virtual Studio installed. This uses an inexpensive Raspberry Pi instead of requiring installing finicky software on a general purpose laptop or other computer. I wrote this while helping a choir get online, and it worked very well. I hope this helps! https://wmleler1.medium.com/setting-up-your-virtual-studio-6a9fbea56f08 https://wmleler1.medium.com/setting-up-your-virtual-studio-6...
