Yo, thanks for the throwback [1] XD

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..

My Bitwig template: limiter on master track. My Renoise template: limiter on master track.

Now I have no fear of loading random presets.

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.

> I suppose still not ready to be a daily driver to replace my normal phone?

I'd say that depends on your definition of daily driver and/or how much compromises you're willing to take. I occasionally see members at my larger hackerspace running around with those or other seemingly "unfit" hardware and not complain too much about it ;)

Aaah, Ludology! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_studies

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 still very usable: it doesn't pick up much else than it should, the SNR is very high and the input sensitivity is quite linear and straight. Very happy with that one. The accessories are quite high quality, too and the pricetag of 180 EUR is quite acceptable.

I got mine on sale for $100-120ish, I believe. No complaints. It's good gear, for me, and the price was quite reasonable, imo.

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 kind-of "on-premises" build process, as imho it is WAY to fault-prone.

Interesting to see this project pull it through anyway.

They also begin with updating a lot of deb-dependencies. I imagine this to be hellishly difficult to maintain. Props for even trying!

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 install nix - actually: not sorry!). I was in (distro) packaging way too deep and decided that my limited time in this world doesn't allow for that kind of crap, anymore.

The blatant mess that ensued in the meantime (i.e. last few years) proves me right, imho.
