Test Router & Network

Instructions

  • Check that computer is connected to router using Ethernet cable.
  • Click Start Network Test button.
  • View test results.

Ensure that your computer is connected to your home router using an Ethernet cable rather than using Wi-Fi wireless access. If necessary, find or purchase a long Ethernet cable, up to 100 ft.

Application Preferences

If you use JamKazam mostly to play with others in real-time, we recommend that you check this box to allow the JamKazam application to start each time you start your computer. It will run quietly in the background, and you won't notice it, but it will collect critical latency data periodically to help you connect with other musicians, and it will also upload/download any recordings you make in sessions.

If you are having problems with the network test or not hearing audio from others and need to configure Port Forwarding in your router, check this box.

You can specify any port you like, but we recommend an even number in the range including 1026-49150 to avoid conflicts with other programs. When configuring Port Forwarding in your router, be sure to open this port along with the next 10. For example, if this field is 12000, then in your router, forward ports 12000-12010 to your computer's IP address.

Adjust Gear Speed

If you are failing the I/O test on your audio interface, or if your audio sounds bad, try selecting a slower audio processing speed. Your goal is to pass the I/O test and hear good audio, while sacrificing as little speed as possible.

Settings:

If adjusting the settings above still doesn't work, you may try experimenting with the Frame and Buffer settings below to see if you can achieve better results using these controls.

session master mix

The master mix is the audio mix used for both recordings and live broadcasts of session audio. Changes to the master mix are global, so there is only one master mix for the session. The master mix does not include controls for the metronome because the metronome is not recorded or broadcast. Any user in the session may use the volume and pan controls below to make adjustments to the master mix for everyone in the session.
