About SonoBus

SonoBus streams audio directly between devices over the internet or a local network. Pick a group name, optionally with a password, and several people can play music together, run remote sessions or record podcasts, with the option to record everyone and play audio to the whole group.

Quality ranges from uncompressed PCM to low-latency Opus, with per-user control over latency and mix plus compression, noise gate, EQ and reverb. It runs standalone on macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS and Android, and as an AU, VST or AAX plugin.

Strengths

  • Low-latency peer-to-peer audio between many users
  • Uncompressed PCM or Opus quality options
  • Works as a plugin inside a DAW
  • Available on desktop and mobile

Limitations

  • Low latency depends on the quality of each participant's connection
