I will try out with my tango band members.

I have had temporary success with my singer. That is not only could and can she hear me perfectly on JamKazam, but I managed to be able to hear her. Unfortunately that changed within a session.

We couldn't get it back to working, so assumed it might have been due to server overload. But at a different time on the next day we couldn't get it back either.

All the while, her signal was showing perfectly, just no sound at my end. She even made a recording in JamKazam where everything was fine at her side, whereas the same recording gave me no sound of her singing. (Hear my attached sample.)

Her latency with her Mac is at 11 ms which should be good enough. 

What could be the issue??

I can hear other musicians when i join open sessions. 
I have told her to try out whether other musicians in open sessions can hear her. 

I wish I had some way of making sense of all this.

Video will interfere with your audio. It takes up bandwidth and adds noise (jitter) to your connection which can (will) result in latency and possibly distorted audio.

A lot of people are very happily playing together - audio only - and are very pleased with this - FREE - effort to facilitate that in these harsh times.

Hi Dimitri, 


we don't use JamKazam Video, just audio. 

However, we have been using a Zoom video chat - on my phone and possibly her Mac - to talk and see each other while testing JamKazam. 
Maybe that could still interfere, as it goes via the same broadband internet connection? Could it be that her JamKazam is affected by Zoom running on the same machine, while my JamKazam is not, since Zoom is running on my phone?

Is it possible that Zoom is delivering us a perfect video and sound connection, while JamKazam cannot even deliver me a simple voice audio connection at the same time??
