Hey folks,

For those interested in jamming accross MSN with other people, I thought I`d put together this little guide for you to try it

there are sometimes latency problems and the signal is cut sometimes. Try it anyway, maybe it

works for you sometimes!


Start with launching POD Farm or Gearbox. Then open MSN and click on the Extras button where the following

window is going to appear.



Click on Audio and Video Setup. You are going to see this window:



Click on "Next".



Here you should choose the "Speakers (your audio interface)" option from the list. Then click on "Play Sound"

and make sure if you hear the sound. If not, make sure if your headphones/speakers are connected properly to your

audio interface which should be linked to the computer correctly. If everyhing´s ok, click on "Next".



Choose from the drop-down list the option that says "Audio Interface (the name of it). Now, make sure that

your guitar is connected to your interface and play something, it doesn´t matter what, nobody is going to hear you

yet, so you can mess up everything. If it works without problems, click on "Next".



Now you are supposed to choose your webcam from the list. If you see yourself in the box (if your camera is set up

correctly and if it focuses you and not the floor ), it is working and you can click on "Finish".



Now you can start talking with someone and call him. Normally, he should hear you.


I hope that everything is clear and it works for you! If not, don´t hesitate to contact me.

See you,
Tolek

Tolek has posted a little guide here for anyone interested in trying to jam over MSN with other people


Cheers Tolek, have to give this a try sometime!

Oh cool man, I'm stoked to try this out.

Thanks for opening.
If you are looking for a test partner, you can add me. Would be really amazing to have a jam with you.

Thank you so much Tolek for this lesson
I requested it and you delivered it perfectly !

I never start POD farm and thats why POD never showed on my MSN
Very helpful info Tolek , thanks again

Glad that I could help you. That´s kind of a thank you to you because of the motivation and tips you give me.
Cheers

Tolek does this thing work without latency?

yes we`ll give this a go sometime, although my connection at home is not all that good but we can try

Sometimes there´s latency, but sometimes we can have a pretty nice sounding jam in real time. It all depends on I don´t know what.


Very cool! Send me a PM when you´re ready, then I´ll give you my msn adress.

Nice tutorial , I gotta test this

This is useful info. Cheers for this.

How can u use your headset and your guitar at the same time? I can't seem to record them at the same time

It´s impossible to use both at the same time unfortunately.

Tolek would this same guide work for SKYPE?

I think so. I never tried it, but I can do it now. I´m going to let you know if it works.

That would be great man !
I used to use skype and now I am planing to download it again and have some jams on it.
Looking forward to it

skype works fine for this...

I must try the Skype thing, sounds cool if possible

Sure, no problem. It is basically the same thing, there are only different images and texts. If you need someone to try with, I can help you.

Skype has half a second delay regardless of internet speed

Hm. not good... Thanks for the info.

No, but it's just as easy.

I figured it out in the meanwhile thanks

I'm glad

I've played with few GMC'ers using eJamming, and it worked pretty well I think

That must be a great thing! Thanks for sharing it!

I tried it few times but it didn't work for me There were constant disconnecting problems all the time...But I haven't tried in a while , maybe they have repaired all the bugs so far!

Wow, this is what I've been waiting for, fantastic explanation.
I mean, that half second delay is tricky...but they will fix it some how in the future...

Very cool Tolek. this work very well for me because I have Jam sessions with Some members. It´s really cool

I´m glad you like it!

I remember asking you specifically to post this guide. Glad to see everybody is benefiting from it !

Oh yes, I remember. It´s stunning how many people want to jam via MSN. It´s a lot of fun.
