Ad-hoc adaptive wireless mobile sound system

An ad-hoc Adaptive Wireless Mobile Sound System, comprising:

• a) two or more mobile phone nodes;
• b) a Master device for sending a message/query to said two or more mobile phone nodes, to verify whether they hold in their memory a specific song/track and to learn their music playing capabilities;
• c) transmission means provided in the Master, for conveying to the mobile nodes that do not have a specific file in their memory, if any, a compressed audio stream of said file;
• d) software for conveying, in a streaming fashion, the compressed audio file over wireless connectivity;
• e) software provided in the Master for selecting, based on an answer to said query, a basic surround scheme/algorithm configuration that takes into account the mobile nodes capabilities;
• f) communication means provided in the Master to publish said basic surround scheme/algorithm configuration by which a playing role/channel is allocated for each of the mobile nodes;
• and
• g) means provided in the Master to synchronize the mobile nodes and to order them to play a stream audio file according to the basic surround scheme;
• wherein the Master is operable to support continuation of the music being played by a substantially similar sound distribution despite a loss of a non-executable node found incapable of executing its allocated role/channel during play time by performing a Smart Recovery operation to minimize impact of the loss of said non-executable node,
• the Master being operable during said Smart Recovery operation to select a compensating surround scheme, to allocate a compensating role/channel associated with said compensating scheme for said nodes other than said non-executable node, and to synchronize said other nodes so as to play said audio file,
• wherein sound parameters of at least one of said other nodes are different in said compensating surround scheme than in said basic surround scheme.
