A couple of us are looking to play live over the internet. I’m fine with sending OSC over a network and getting them to run in sync including latency - so I don’t need advice on that. More conceptually what to do with it.
So in two separate locations, both running over Zoom, there’s two latencies to deal with - the ‘OSC loop’ and the ‘audio loop’. I’m thinking that there might be some pattern that means both parties get an audio experience that is fully in sync.
Something like ninJam does this an interesting way, I won’t describe it all here, but in short everyone hears their own playing over everyone else’s previous bar. Perfect sync.
Recently the BBC Radiophonic workshop did something that used the latency rather than tried to minimise it - described as like a long tape loop going round to five houses.
Before I go and lie down in a quiet room, has anyone done this?
