About:
Jamulus is an open-source, low-latency audio server that enables musicians to rehearse and perform together in real-time over the internet. It uses a client-server architecture where a host runs the server and others connect, automatically mixing audio streams to create a seamless jam session. The software is designed to minimize network delay, making it possible to play in sync with others from different locations.
Key Features:
  • Low-latency audio streaming for real-time collaboration
  • Supports up to 128 simultaneous clients on a single server
  • Cross-platform clients for Windows, macOS, and Linux
  • Automatic server listing for easy discovery of sessions
  • Free and open-source under the GPLv2 license
Use Cases:
  • Remote band practice and rehearsals for musicians
  • Online live music performances and jam sessions
  • Virtual music lessons between teachers and students
Alternatives:
  • Sonobus – Similar low-latency audio streaming, but with a more modern UI and mobile app support
  • JackTrip – More focused on high-fidelity studio-quality audio with less emphasis on automatic mixing and discovery
