Thx, ChrisI don't know if there is a specific limit, but it's my understanding that JanKazam achieves low latency by having each participating computer send its audio directly to the other participants (rather than to a central sever). So for a 20 person choir, each participant computer would be sending its audio packets to 19 other computers, and also receiving audio from those 19 computers. Clearly all that activity will cause some added latency as you add more participants.
By the way, sending and receiving video also seems to affect latency. My quartet has been using JK succesfully for a few weeks now, but it does seem to increase our latency when we use video, so we mostly do not.
