ChoralWiki:Free webinar Feb27: Introduction to Making Music Remotely Using Jamulus
Free Webinar Feb27 hosted by CPDL: Introduction to Making Music Remotely Using Jamulus
The Choral Public Domain Library (CPDL) presents an introduction to using the Jamulus software for near real-time singing. Jamulus is a software package that allows musicians in different locations to make music simultaneously as an ensemble.
We will cover an introduction to Jamulus, a comparison with other leading solutions (JackTrip Virtual Studio, Soundjack), lessons from rehearsing a choir and hosting a sing-along via Jamulus, and have an opportunity for Q+A with our panel of speakers. We will also have a Jamulus server configured to allow a limited number of spots for people to try it out in a small group to see how the latency feels for making music together. The webinar will be held via Zoom; advance RSVP required via the link below.
When: February 27, 2021
1pm EST (New York, USA) 10am PST (San Francisco, USA) 19h CET (Paris, France)

• Nick Weininger (singer, International Orange Chorale of San Francisco; composer; software engineering consultant). • Jace Wittig (Assoc.
