## What is SyncJam?

SyncJam is a new way to make music together. Join a room, invite a friend and start jamming!

Make pandemic-life a bit more enjoyable with SyncJam’s revolutionary music technology.

Make music like it's 2099
SyncJam uses time traveling to make it possible for you and your friends to play together (live), without worrying about internet connectivity. Sounds like magic? It is.

Enter the Time Machine
Playing with SyncJam is like making music inside a time machine. Normally, making music with friends on the internet is very difficult, because you need extremely fast internet for that (latency of less than 15ms). But SyncJam does something smart: we have worked around the latency issue by doing something revolutionary: time traveling. Yes, you read that right. SyncJam let's you plays with time. How does it work? It's very simple. Just start by choosing a time travelling mode:

Choose a mode
Try one of SyncJam's three jamming modes:
- Delayed mode: one player is the lead. The lead plays 4 beats in the future. The other players follow the lad. 
- Live mode: no time travelling. Everyone hears what the others are playing now.
- Crossover mode: every player hears what the other player played 4 beats earlier.
