설명

SonoBus is an easy to use application for streaming high-quality, low-latency peer-to-peer audio between devices over the internet or a local network.

Simply choose a unique group name (with optional password), and instantly connect multiple people together to make music, remote sessions, podcasts, etc. Easily record the audio from everyone, as well as playback any audio content to the whole group. Public groups are also available, for those interested in connecting to new people.

Connects multiple users together across the internet to send and receive audio among all in a group, with fine-grained control over latency, quality and overall mix. Use it on your desktop or in your DAW, or on your mobile device. You can also use it locally on your own LAN to send audio among your devices with low latency.

Works as a standalone application. as an AudioUnit v3 plugin with a compatible host app, or via Interapp-Audio. You can connect to others using SonoBus on any of the other platforms it runs on.

Easy to setup and use, yet still providing all the details that audio nerds want to see. Audio quality can be instantly adjusted from full uncompressed PCM down through various compressed bitrates using the low-latency Opus codec.

SonoBus does NOT use any echo cancellation, or automatic noise reduction in order to maintain the highest audio quality. As a result, if you have a live microphone signal you will need to also use headphones to prevent echos and/or feedback.

SonoBus does NOT currently use any encryption for the data communication, so while it is very unlikely that it will be intercepted, please keep that in mind. All audio is sent directly between users peer-to-peer, the connection server is only used so that the users in a group can find each other.

For best results, and to achieve the lowest latencies, connect your device with wired ethernet to your router. Little known fact, you can use USB ethernet interfaces with your iOS device using the proper adapter (USB camera connection kit, or natively with USB-C apple devices). It *will* work using WiFi, but the added network jitter and packet loss will require you to use a bigger safety buffer to maintain a quality audio signal, which results in higher latencies, which may or may not be acceptable for your use case.

버전 1.7.2

- Made the use of the universal font optional (defaulting to off), because it was causing slowdowns on some devices. Only enable it if you need to have universal language character support.

From 1.7.1:

- Added dedicated button on main window for getting to VDO.Ninja group video link (for those who didn't even know it was there!)
- Fixed VDO.Ninja link generator, Open in browser now operates properly (which it never did)
- Other minor fixes

From 1.7.0:

- Added "Suggest New Group" feature. From the group popup (the button just below Connect showing group info) a new item was added that lets you pick who from the currently connected group you would like to join you in a new group, makes the request and connects you to the new group. If the others accept they will immediately connect to the new group with you. This feature can be used in the situation where you are in a public group, but would like to continue to play/talk with a subset of them in a new private (or public) group, with the least amount of effort.

- Added Reset All Jitter Buffer button (near the bottom next to FX) with keybinding (cmd/ctrl-J)

- Added additional features to the VDO.Ninja link generator, allowing you to create links for both webcam and screenshare usage, which you can use at the same time in multiple browser windows/tabs. Also, an option was added to generate the link so that your content is only pushed, viewing no one... which can be handy if you are using both webcam and screenshare at the same time, and pick one to not view anyone.

- Added Soundboard volume control and send-to-group controls at the bottom of the Soundboard

- The used font now supports all translated languages, so you can use Chinese, Japanese, or Korean text in names or chat messages, even if the app isn't set for that language. It has fewer other symbols, however.

- Added an option (and made it the default to on) to make the Mute controls in the Input Mixer and the overall input mute at the top be respected when recording yourself. Before the self-recordings would include the input even though they were muted. You can get back to the old way with a new option in the recording options.

- Fixed user scrolling area size issue

- Fixed occasional crash on record

4.8/5

It does what it says it will do at low latency!

I’ve been using this app and it’s associated AU and VST3 plug-ins since it was in beta. I have been dreaming of something that would do this for quite some time and then this came along. All I can say is that it blew me away. I work on AWS cloud based production systems and this app allows me to transport high quality headphone feeds to wherever I am. I’ve even used it over cellular and it works quite well. If you do any kind of remote audio collaboration this is something you need to look into! If you dig in to what it can do and experiment, you’ll be amazed.

Thank you

Just want to say a massive thank you to the developer, especially since this is free. Does everything it says, and amazingly so. I love you!

App keeps crashing when joining room

I’ve use this app with my doll on my MacBook Pro, however using it with my iPhone I’ve noticed a lot of crashes. When putting in the private group name and then password, the app just closes. I hope this book can be fixed because what this app is used for and its purpose, comes in very handy.
