eJamming AUDiiO: Play Live with Other Musicians Over the Net

There’s nothing quite like getting a group of people together in a dingy garage and playing live music together. But eJamming AUDiiO comes close.

The eJamming software is like Skype for musicians. It allows you to connect with fellow rockers over the Internet and jam — even if your drummer lives a few states away. And because you can do this all through a set of headphones, you won’t have to worry about the police knocking on your door after your neighbors file a noise complaint.

Developer eJamming was faced with the obstacle of having to transmit high quality audio while avoiding latency transmission delays. While AUDiiO has successfully achieved this, there are a few requirements: you need a good Internet connection and the distance between your fellow musicians shouldn’t be more than a few hundred miles (you can still use it at a further distance, but there will be a noticeable latency).

With AUDiiO you can play in sync and even record your live compositions with its basic sound editing software. The software can interface with your current audio input setup so there should be no additional hardware required to get it up and running. As musicians know, subtle facial expressions are necessary for a successful performance, so the eJamming team is working on video support.

eJamming AUDiiO is beta software and can be downloaded after signing up for an eJamming account (free while in beta). You can also check out a video demo of AUDiiO.
