We have been collaborating long distance for quite a while now, mostly with the use of Drop Box and uploading project files and recorded tracks. Live would be nice to work out parts with one another, but I can't see finished recordings being done live.

I wonder about the latency.

The several times I have used Skype to talk to a buddy, it was like communication to the moon. A serious delay in the signals made communication shaky, at least until you understand that you need to wait 3 seconds or more to get a reply back. And if the other person hesitates to think.... man that really messes you up.

Yeah, I don't know how well it would work trying to play together. My guess is that its "Hey check this chord progression out." [plays chords] and other guys says "Cool, get it down and loop it and I'll play some lead."

For practicing, composing, jamming over distance, give JamKazam[dot]com a try. It's a really solid, online jamming platform. Highly recommended.
