This Java Applet allows several performers from around the web to jam together.

If you haven't already, please install the free JSyn audio pluginfrom SoftSynth.com.

Getting Started:

1. Warning: Netscape will restart the Applet if you resize this window. This will log you out. So please do not resize this  window.
2. Please wait for the Applet to load. It is about 280KB so it may take a minute to load if you are using a telephone modem. When you see the Login button below, then it is ready for use.
3. Login using your real name or a handle.
4. Choose to join an existing session, or create a new one. Please join an existing session if available.

Once Inside a Drum Session:

• To turn on or off drum beats, click on the blue boxes in the grid.
• Click the [OWN] button to gain control over a drum that someone else owns. Then you can edit that drum.
• To turn on or off notes in a melody, click on a column in the melody grid. Only one note per column may be selected. To turn off a note, click on it.
• Type in the text field at the bottom of the Chat Window and hit [Enter] to chat with other performers.

Experiment and have fun. If you cannot find someone to jam with, come back on the next hour, or if that fails, at noon Pacific Standard Time.
If you notice ANY problems, or have suggestions, then please send mail to Phil Burk here. A "Login" button will appear below when the Applet has finished downloading.
