This article offers a practical framework and effective alternative technological solutions for reimagining recording arts and music production through free, open-source network audio technology during the pandemic. Network audio technology has become a crucial vehicle for music ensembles and bands to remotely rehearse, record, perform, and produce concerts and albums, which offer innovative opportunities to transcend geographical distance and deepen human connections between cultures and communities. By elaborating and analysing detailed qualitative case studies in multichannel high-fidelity network audio recording, mixing, and postproduction using hardware-software configuration, JackTrip, and Netty-McNetface as evidence, the authors prove the significance of open-source network audio technology as well as provide effective and economical solutions for musicians, composers, music educators, audio engineers, media artists, curators, and performing arts institutions to reimagine their future practices that lead to revolutionary institutional change during and beyond the pandemic.
