The rest of the journey connecting musicians is the network, with all it's buffers/encoder/decoders/switches. The only time the speed of sound and light are in involved is the 1m from camera/mic to the subject (you and the guitar), and at the other end when the observer is seeing/hearing light/sound emit from the display/loadspeaker/earphones. Really interested in what you mean by the speed of light being an issue. I could see using these high quality audio features with my musician friends. I plan to switch to Teams for personal use when I get Windows 11. Believe it or not, the speed of light starts to become the main limitation and that cannot be fixed as distance increases. If you say 15ms is needed just for network delays and application delays, that leaves 5ms for the speed of light to travel which is 930 miles. Musicians need 20ms or less latency to stay in time. Latency will be an issue for people to stay in time. One should realize that this will not allow people to play together over Teams. I have since noticed that Zoom has these features, but I have not tried with acoustic guitar. I suspected the echo cancelation was causing these weird effects. It actually sounded a little out of tune. Acoustic guitar did not sound good over Skype even with high quality mics. During the pandemic, I took guitar lessons over Skype.
