Download Soundjack (current version of April 25th, 2014):

New since last update:

1.) Loopback fader is defaulted to zero and the last position is saved in the config.txt now (please delete your old config.txt)
2.) Soundjack offers a level meter for the loopback and each received stream now
3.) The Group connection is back to work and can now be configured with frame sizes of 256 and 128 (upon request)
4.) Input not scaled according to number of connections anymore (sound will be louder but you have to take care of it yourself)
5.) Various userlist improvements regarding lost connections etc. and code cleanup

Still existing bugs/issues:

1.) Linux: Jack still buggy
2.) Linux: Casual soundcard issues can lead to white noise - restart required
3.) Winodws: Either your card has to have native ASIO support or ASIO4ALL must be installed (WASAPI might be an alternative)
4.) Windows: When using ASIO4ALL *any* other sound application (incl. Windows sound notifications) must be turned off

How to use Soundjack

Once you launched Soundjack you first have to make sure to have a properly working soundcard configuration ! In that context check the available input- and output devices and configure them with the supported channels and audio buffer size. If the settings not ok the lower play and record buttons will be disabled and the the number box will remain red. In this case you cannot proceed further and need to reconfigure your settings. If they are ok the buttons will be enabled and the box will show green color. Then you can choose between two modes - the automatic server based mode (1) or the manual p2p mode (2).

(1): In automatic server based mode type a username into the edit field and hit enter. In the third line you see your own entry uploaded to the network. Below the second line you see other users currently online. If you want you can use the text field as a simple chat. The second line "Group Connection" is supposed to work for large music ensembles of more than 4 players. In this mode every incoming stream is mixed at the server and sent to every connected user. This stream is an uncompressed one-channel stream with a block size of 512 samples. The group connection is currently in debug mode, which is why it is often disabled. Furthermore, if you choose "private room" you can define your own "rehearsal space". Players who choose the "public" option or simply chooose a different room will have a disabled ON-Button

(2): In the manual mode you need to specify the desired IP addresses and ports yourself. This is especially useful for scenarios, in which you want to connect machines within a local area network (LAN). In this mode you do not appear in any other person's user list.

Finally, in order to establish a successful Soundjack audio streaming connection you simply need to hit "ON" behind the respective user in the user list. If it doesn't work you are dealing with firewall issues or a symmetric NAT, which is not supported yet.
In that case you should ideally enable your router's port forwarding to port UDP 4401.

Additionally you can use a text chat, which will make text communication easier for you: Soundjack Text Chat (https://sites.google.com/site/soundjackchat/)

Soundjack support info

 when you see red it is either a server issue (which is very unlikely because I usually does not crash) or a sound-card issue. Please delete your config.txt and relaunch Soundjack.

You can set your Private Room Closed once all your players are in and then lock it. Then you will not be disturbed and can start recording.
