The workloads in this guide run great on an Altivora Cloud VPS. You get full root access, so you can host any game server, Discord bot, Lavalink node or database yourself, with fast NVMe storage, DDoS protection, instant setup and no per-slot limits.

JMusicBot is renowned as one of the most stable and feature-rich open-source Discord music bots. By connecting it to an external Altivora Lavalink 4 node, you offload all CPU-heavy audio transcoding and stream seamlessly 24/7.

Step-by-Step Configuration:

Deploy a Lavalink node on Altivora and note your IP, port (default: 2333), and password.
Open config.txt in your JMusicBot directory.
Configure your Lavalink block:

token = "YOUR_DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN"
owner = 123456789012345678
prefix = "!"
game = "DEFAULT"
stayinchannel = true

// Lavalink Node Connection
lavalink = {
  host = "node-jp1.altivorahosting.com"
  port = 2333
  password = "YourSecurePassword"
}

Launch JMusicBot with java -jar JMusicBot-0.4.1.jar - enjoy uninterrupted 320kbps audio playback!
