Single Channel Voice Chat

If you wanted a lot of people in a room and didn't mind losing positional voice chat can we get all the voices mixed into a single channel to save bandwidth?

Not with Normcore but that’s what things like Zoom do. I don’t think we would add it though. It would require the server to be able to do efficient audio compression, mixing and jitterbuffering which is a heavy piece to add. It will also introduce latency as the server has to wait for a voice packet from all clients before it can mix them together and relay

a delay would also be fine if you wanted zoom style voice chat, maybe as a paid add-on
