A couple of years ago I recorded a very short, but somewhat intense, rainstorm with hail and thunder. And now I'm sharing it with you. Put on some headphones and relax.

@asklemmy How do you listen to music / podcasts? At what places?

For me, I mostly listen on podcasts during my drive or commuting on the train, via bluebooth earphones even in my car.

When doing deep work such as on the computer, I listened to music out loud (bluetooth speaker) in my home office.

Share your favourite apps, channels or even gadgets in your audio experience.

Back with another Reaper newbie question. How exactly do I tell FX where, and when, to apply? I'm using the Voxengo beeper plugin. I created a new track, and added Beeper as an effect. But now, how do I tell it where to apply? I have a very narrow portion of audio I want to sensor.

yougenius, (edited ) to music

I'm really curious - where people of mastodon LISTEN to music most?

If other leave a comment, I want to know about your niche-y platforms for music listening.

UnitedHealthcare tried to deny Chris McNaughton health coverage. He fought back, filed a lawsuit and exposed the company’s inner workings.

None of the UnitedHealthcare representatives heard in this video responded to our requests for comment.

Shortly after we published our story, United settled Chris’ . The terms are confidential.

Reaper friends: I have a track that I want to lower the volume of gradually, but not to complete silence (roughly 50%). I know about Ctrl+Alt+O, but that fades to complete silence from the cursor to the end of the track. Any suggestions?

Piciok, to accessibility Polish

Not sure whether this has been already brought up here but someone has created an assistant app for the VoiceMeeter application for Windows. VoiceMeeter is a bit like Audio Hijack for Mac where you can chain different inputs on a virtual soundcard, let it run through different outputs and route the audio of other programs to it just like you could with a physical mixing board. Currently I have set it up so that my microphone runs through it as well as any other app i route to it and it is all played both for me on my headset and to the world wherever I decide to stream it. The microphone is muted on my end so that I don't have to hear myself but others can hear me still. It is early days and many options aren't supported by the accessibility addon but the fact I could create an optimal config for myself is already great. Let's tell the dev how important their work is, send feedback and suggestions. Happy testing! https://github.com/onyx-and-iris/nvda-voicemeeter #

, Korg and more Korg this week as I play for you, the sounds from Extreme and Native for three and a half hours.
No need to keep your eyes on the screen as with any of my videos, it's all about the aspect.
Sit back, relax, put on your favourite cans or turn up your favourite speakers and listen to the sounds on-offer, all from the comfort of your home, car, commute to work or wherever else you might happen to be:

You are in a very small, very clean apartment. You see a man sitting at a desk. He is shirtless and wearing a pair of large cans. He is singing Ace Of Bass in very loud, very bad falsetto. No wonder he didn't hear your entrance. There's a glass of at his right hand. His left is fidgeting with something. There are shelves above the desk. On the top, you see an AM-FM broadcast receiver, a small transceiver, a power outlet strip, and a small recorder. You turn your attention to the laptop.

>> read screen

You notice a distribution of with the Mate desktop. There are three windows open. The foremost is a vlc open on a playlist. Behind this, you see two text editors and a firefox. One editor has what looks like an post for Mastodon. The other has a character sheet, in progress. The firefox has the DND wiki. On one of two easy chairs, you see graphic tees. You realize there's nothing worth stealing, so, you quietly exit.

GameDev problem: the music in our WebGL game on itch.io won't start until the user clicks in the window. Unity claims this is a browser limitation (no autoplay):

https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/webgl-audio.html

... but the user has already clicked to load and launch the game, so it seems there should be no reason to require another click. I know I've seen WebGL games on itch that don't have this problem.

Does anyone know a workaround?

devinprater, to headphones

So, I'm looking for some good headphones, mainly for use on a computer. I'd love 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound, yes I know it's fake, no, I don't care. If there needs to be any setup, the app should be accessible to screen readers. I like overear headphones, bonus points if the earcup isn't bolted onto the headpiece so that if I were to sit on it, it won't break apart and unabled to be fixed. I can pay a good $150 for them, maybe a bit more if it can make me sandwiches and cool stuff like that, or has some kind of 3D audio stuff that actually works in games, movies and such and isn't just for one game engine or something.

Got a question for any and people out there: How do you like to be approached re: commissioning artwork? Some of y'all have prices clearly posted (bless you) but a lot of you don't... does this mean you don't accept ? Because I feel like many of you do but you don't advertise it, or aren't clear about it...

(To be fair, I don't really advertise it either, but I'd absolutely accept commissioned work!)

I seem to remember seeing something about a more accessible field recorder the other month, believe it was by Zoom. I might be thinking of the portable microphone they released that also functions as a recorder, but I seem to recall there was another more high-end one that worked using an app or some such. ANyone know what I'm thinking of?

robcornelius, to opensource

If you have any skills or talents that you can use to try to avert the coming #climatecatastrophe then get off your arse and do something.

Thats not saying "I will fly less and recycle more". Its coming freely together with other people to come up with new ideas and inventions to sort things out. If we can come up with #opensource software like #Linux then we can come up with open source solutions to #software and #hardware problems to help everyone

Its not just #scientists, #engineers and the like. If you are good at say editing #video or #audio you can help make content promoting the other people creating new technology. #Economists, #politicians and more can come up with #equitable and fair means of generating money with the new #technologies. They can also tax the rich motherfuckers until the pips squeak to pay for them too.

Anything else is fiddling while Rome burns.

Has anybody experience with good cabled on ear (e.g. Beyerdynamic DT 700 Pro X), plugged into a jack? Is the sound unit good enough for this or should l think of adding a usb to the list?

(I am thinking of adding the Beyerdynamic DT 700 Pro X to my christmas wishlist :blobcatgiggle: )

PeerTube, the Fediverse's alternative to YouTube, is normally associated with video. However, you can also upload audio files directly to PeerTube. It will accept lots of audio formats including .mp3, .ogg, .aac, .flac, .wma etc.

You can optionally upload an image file as a thumbnail. If not, audio files will show a black screen by default.

You can find out more about PeerTube at https://fedi.tips/peertube-video-hosting-on-the-fediverse/

I'm downloading Descript as I write this. My first intro to text as the interface to audio editing (such a profound and wonderful idea!) was courtesy of Laurian Gridinoc years ago, I've been eagerly awaiting more general availability.

See also https://blog.jonudell.net/2022/09/25/curating-the-studs-terkel-archive/ about remixing the Studs Terkel archive using Laurian's https://hyper.audio/. I wonder if Descript uses the same or a different foundation?

Trying to get back into creative coding. The one thing that I've always wanted to do and never figured out is synchronizing music with something like p5.js or p5.py or something similar. What I'd like to do is drive the sketch with MIDI data, which is also being used to play music.

Anyone know how to do this?

The laugh track was once a standard feature of every TV comedy, but it may now be on its final chuckle — the last major show that used one was "The Big Bang Theory," and that finished in 2019. The Atlantic's Jacob Stern writes about the half-century history of the audio irritant, which actor David Niven once called “the single greatest affront to public intelligence I know of,” and whether we'll miss it when it's gone. "For all the ire it incurred, for all the bad jokes it disguised, the laugh track was fundamentally about reproducing the experience of being part of an audience, and its decline is also the decline of communal viewership," says Stern. What's your take on the track? [Story is paywalled]
