Quick Start

• Download Solocontutti and install it
• Make sure you are using a headphone - if you use the inbuilt speaker of your device you'll get some nasty feedback. Don't use bluetooth headphones, these usually add a large amount of delay (latency) to the signal.
• If you are using a VPN turn it (temporarily) off - Solocontutti will not work correctly across a VPN.
• Try to use a wired connection to internet - WiFi is less reliable and gives more latency.
• The first time you start, a Wizard will run to help you with some settings.
• To start a session you need to have a subscription, which means at least one of the players in a session needs to have a subscription. The first month of a standard subscription is free and you can always cancel in the first month if you don't want to continue. To get a subscription go to "Upgrade" in the main menu. The various subscription levels are explained here.
• If you want to start a session with friends you should:
• Click "Start" to start a session with other musicians
• Send your partners the code the you receive
• All the partners click on "join" and enter the code
• Play away and enjoy yourself
• If there is still a large delay due to poor network conditions, start the metronome. This will synchronise to the same time for everybody, regardless of network delay. Any member of the group can change the metronome speed at any time.

You can also join an existing jam session by selecting "Jam" from the main menu and click on one of the existing jam sessions in the list.

If you want to know more about how to reduce the latency (delay) over the line, there is a guide here.
