JamHive (http://beta.jamhive.com) -- a service for musicians to collaborate regardless of physical distance and time constraints.
Back Story
I love music and would love to do a jam session with old friends, but it is difficult to schedule a time or we live too far away (ie: SF & Amsterdam & Tokyo).
Why Cool
* Musicians work together on a single jam (up to 5 instrument/vocal tracks)
* Record directly into browser or upload a pre-recorded audio file
* Basic editing and filtering of sound waves
And I am looking for feedback & advise!
* @Musicians, how is the recording & editing experience?
* @Engineers, currently, this is built with RoR, Bootstrap, Heroku, AWS and a huge mishmash of the Web Audio API - how can I make this scale better for smartphone, tablets, more browsers (currently only Chrome and Firefox)?
* @Engineers, advice on improving (speed & security) data upload / download
