The purpose of this document is to provide an on-going update on network performance options. The intent is to address the basic issue of performing or rehearsing with one or more remote performers. Audio Latency is the big issue. When traditional musicians perform, they generally need to be able to hear, at least, some of the other musicians. The issue of seeing the other musicians is addressed in a separate document. For our purposes, a standard "recording studio" setup is most appropriate where musicians may be isolated (in booths or blocked by panels), but they can hear each other acoustically or through headphones with minimul delay. It is worth noting here that musicians will generally experience a delay of 5-10ms as a result of their instrument and velocity of sound through the room.

Apart from valuable collaborations and online sessions with CCRMA/Stanford, SARC/Belfast and IRCAM/Paris the software is continuously being improved in terms of low delay coding and general traffic engineering.
