Show HN: Teapodo (Lightweight Audio Editor) Now Supports VST/AU Plugins

#1
It's a big deal.

- Teapodo now supports adding audio effects to tracks by mounting VST3 (Windows and macOS) and AudioUnit (macOS) plugins.

- Teapodo for Windows now has an installer.

Perhaps slightly off-topic, but wondering if this has the functionality or what others on HN would recommend.

I have a friend who enjoys online multi-player games, but she often faces quite a bit of unfriendly remarks when she speaks (CS:GO, I believe it's been an ongoing problem in the community). I'm thinking perhaps an audio program that can alter her voice from female to male would let her game in peace - would anyone on HN have any suggestions/recommendations?

That looks seriously impressive. I've tested it with only two (stereo) tracks and one plugin. First impressions.

* Smooth and fast.

* 160MB disk space, and 100MB RAM on startup isn't lightweight in my book, though.

* The plugin selection window is unwieldy. I tested it on an (audio-wise) clean macOS system, and the list of Apple plugins was already almost impossible to navigate. On my personal laptop, I've got hundreds of plugins more. A search/filter function would be most welcome.

* I wouldn't call it an audio editor, as I don't seem to be able to edit the actual wave. Or are you still planning to add that? I don't have a good alternative description handy, though. DAW, perhaps?

* Vertical zoom would be nice too.

* There seems to be always one tracked armed. That's going to cause accidental overwrites, which won't be noticed until it's too late. I see it's easy to remove recordings, but people in a hurry won't notice until after bouncing.

* Joining/grouping clips is needed.

Excellent work.

Depends on the platform, but 'soundflower' let's you reroute audio through a plugin/filter. It takes quite a bit of knowledge to get into that. Try to find someone who knows his way around plugins.
