# Comms

{% embed url="<https://comms.cam/>" %}
<https://comms.cam/>
{% endembed %}

* Created a page called *Comms*, which is designed for audio-only production.
* You can select which "group" you want to be a part of via the top bar, where those in your group can hear you and vice versa.
* If you aren't in a group, you hear everyone.
* Compatible with [`&groups`](/advanced-settings/setup-parameters/and-group.md) with VDO.Ninja as normal; it's just a custom layout stylized/tweaked for audio-only production comms.
* There's a few URL parameters you can set, including [`&push`](/advanced-settings/setup-parameters/push.md), [`&label`](/advanced-settings/setup-parameters/label.md), [`&room`](/advanced-settings/setup-parameters/room.md), [`&password`](/advanced-settings/setup-parameters/and-password.md), and [`&groups`](/advanced-settings/setup-parameters/and-group.md).
* If you use `&groups=group1,groupb,etc`, new group buttons will appear.
* By default, groups 1 to 6 are there.
* If you use `&groups=1,2,3` , you'll auto-join groups 1, 2 and 3.
