-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 If you're trying to synchronize singing between different locations you'll probably find that even the fastest connections have unacceptable latency. Imagine there's a .1 second lag between you. When the conductor says "Go" the group in the same location starts immediately, but the remote group hears "Go" at t=0.1 and by the time the local group hears the remote group start it's t=0.2 There's no way to synchronize two choirs in different locations (although someone may be able to synch separate soundtracks in post-production).
But, you may want to try the Mumble client (or Plumble on an Android device) using a Murmur server. Mumble allows you to record each remote connection separately in its own sound file for post-production processing. Mumble /Plumble / Murmur is an audio-only solution, no video. There's a text chat channel, tho. - --Bob.
