Silent Disco settings

Hey Zoomers, this could be massive: For those of you NOT familiar, "Silent Disco" is where a DJ has a limited number of headphones connected to their DJ gear, usually 30-ish people. The DJ gives out the headhones, nobody else can hear.

I want to do this on Zoom, and tried today, but it did not work. Anyone with their phone can log in using a QR code, and use their own headphones to listen.

Has anyone tried it? And what settings did you use? Please and thank you,
DJ Crispy Matters

    hi @Crispy_Matters ,

    So, you just need the audio output to plug into the same sound system the DJ uses.
    They have one output for multiple headphones.

    Standard headphones are one output to one headphone.
    So you are going to have issues scaling if you go one-to-one.
    Bluetooth and wireless networks would quickly be under pressure if they ran individually.

     
    All the best

     

    John
