The amount of latency, even in an extremely efficient implementation, will be high enough to keep that approach from working. Unless everyone has a very low latency audio setup (roughly the default on macs, somewhat difficult elsewhere, impossible on Android), a wired internet connection, and relatively low physical distance, you just can’t get low enough latency to keep everything feeling simultaneous. A good target there is about 30ms.
The goal with this project is to make something feel like group singing, even though people are not actually singing at the exact same time as each other.
