vista compatibility

Just curios where you guys are in terms of windows vista compatibility. I realize that most of this stuff doesn't even have drivers for vista yet but do you think the port will be quick or slow and painful.

much harder than I thought

Yeah this is turning into a never ending search. I can't even find software that I would purchase that would perform this. I'm sure creating a common clock to keep two or more computers syched to as they play would be a chore considering the variety of audio hardware. I imagine even the type of ...

synching streaming audio on multiple computers

I'm currently looking for a way to stream synched audio between two or more computers. It's kind of wishful thinking that someone could rig up a perfect sync using the eventghost networking plugin but if anyone got it working with eventghost or any other program I'm listening. The ideal would be the ...

This is to whoever is responsible for maintaining the wiki. I wrote an article about EG for the Denguru section of Tomshardware.com but my editor said it was too complicated for the average user to understand. I would like to donate it to your wiki as a rationale for 30 hours of work and 3 rewrites ...
