    Compression with a side chain also has some very interesting use cases like ducking ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ducking )

    Or in short (as every modern producer already knows): Put a limiter on that! Actually, put a limiter everywhere - if you work in software, they're real cheap..

    Got you covered. All sfw, just the filenames are a bit offensive, if you speak dutch. It's like that "two naked tits/boobies" (the birds) joke and others.

    Iirc it does exactly that and all local in your browser. It is very good for a quick check if this-and-that (web)app is stupid or if your whole browser audio setup is borked.

    I have the "non-usb-version" (i think it has some other differences as well) of it (NT1A) and that is a very good price/quality ratio, imho. Doesn't sound like a Telefunken but sti…

    In another note: The docker-compose file builds the frontend live on the docker container. I've built similar technology a few years ago and am totally trying to get rid of this ki…

    I've decided (a few years ago) that if i'll ever have to upgrade the packaging for my stuff, i'm going to do it with nix (and only that - sorry other os users, you'll have to insta…

    Packaging and linting are two very different topics. Just because someone does A very well, doesn't mean they have any clue about B.

    Well, that is.. unlikely. With a bigger CPU, you'll need to add a fan to the cooler, as well. And your mainboard/ram/gpu/ssds generate a lot of unwanted heat, too. Might work for e…

    It's always a little minigame of not activating too much but still getting a working site. Fishy things get painted red, hopefully good things get painted green - reload and try ag…

    They could offer very customized versions made in an Inconel 3d printer.. Wonder if that (economically & technologically - is inconel seawater safe??) really makes sense, though.

    Uh, plastic props for my harbour-pusher come in at lousy 45 bucks. Sometimes, i'm so happy to own a smol boat.

    Hah. Jokes on you! I'll gladly try using a 3D printed version of this on my 600W angry-pixie-harbour-pusher - which they only sell overpriced plastic props for, anyway ;D Btw.: Wor…

    Sailor in me doesn't give a shite, i just want more battery life out of the smol-angry-pixie-harbour-pusher.

    You're way not alone. Love those ugly-brown quiet-machines. Still, they're probably looking at this and think "Nah, our optimizations are way cheaper to manufacture and wholly suff…

    Which is exactly what i'm looking at, too. F** any noise improvements. With the smol angry-pixie-driven (very quiet!) harbour pusher, i'm just looking at ways to not use up too man…

    Edit, to clarify: i refer here to 3D printed boat props, not for copters. I'm considering this as well. I have an electrical outboard engine on my 24". 600W is way less stressing o…

    I'd wager to say that on most civilian vessels, the engine noise is far louder than what the prop could generate. I'm happily using a 600W outboard electrical - while it would be d…
