Hi Dave, not sure about today Zoom meeting because I will be working. I might be able to listen you play as I work but I may not be able to participate in a discussion.

Hi, I'm Matt from the Boston area. New to the world of didging and looking forward to a new musical experience.

Here is some information about the problems we experienced with Zoom, generated with the help of ChatGPT: It seems that Zoom is suppressing the sound of the didgeridoo. From what I’ve learned, this actually makes sense: Zoom is designed to prioritize speech and filter out what it considers background noise. Because the didgeridoo produces low-frequency drones and complex overtones, the software often misinterprets it as noise and suppresses or distorts it. Possible solution in Zoom:You can improve this by enabling Original Sound and adjusting the audio settings: 1. Go to Settings → Audio 2. Click Advanced 3. Set: 4. Enable: During the meeting: - Click “Turn on Original Sound” (top left) Additional tips: - Enable High fidelity music mode for better sound quality - Disable “Automatically adjust microphone volume” - Use an external microphone if possible Alternatives (better for music):Zoom is not really designed for real-time music collaboration, especially with instruments like the didgeridoo. You might get better results with: - Jamulus — designed specifically for low-latency online jamming - Cleanfeed — high-quality audio streaming in the browser - Discord — can work surprisingly well with the right audio settings These platforms handle continuous sound and musical dynamics much better than Zoom. Hope this helps so we can actually hear each other next time 🙂

Hi everyone. Just a wee reminder, we are having another live session and hangout happening tomorrow. Please check the time adjacent to your location. Here is the Zoom Link. I look forward to seeing you again or meeting you. Make it a great day, David
