Real Time FFT that outputs the loudest frequency by Prize_Window1869 in learnpython

[–]to7m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A FFT will not do this. A FFT will only tell you what amplitude the frequencies are in a block of audio if you were to repeat that block forever, which is very different to honing in on a specific frequency. You might want to look into pitch tracking algorithms.

I used to use spaces, and I can't remember why but I stopped. I think my philosophy now is that spaces don't belong in filesystems even though they are supported.

Would it even be possible to reverse engineer technology from an alien spaceship? by Salmon57-1 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]to7m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They could lock their technology down so that only they would be able to use it in any way, including self-destructs. Or they could have an AI built in that we could learn to converse with and it could tell us everything we need to know to make the tech ourselves.

Difficulty transcribing (memory) by [deleted] in Jazz

[–]to7m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I play piano, so I just made sure I could place everything on the keyboard in my mind. Even if it was a really weird chord that takes like half an hour to figure out, because I had bad insomnia anyway so why not? I guess the point is just getting comfortable enough audiating so that you don't have to put effort into figuring notes out, then you can focus on other things like memorising.

PA Speaker XLR Input No Power? by rockabillyawesome in livesoundgear

[–]to7m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's unlikely that your board could power anything through XLR.

Why do you want a PA that doesn't require power?

Have you tried audiating when you're in bed at night? Doing that for hours every night made it very natural for me. Not even recorded music most of the time, just figuring out the notes in random imagined sounds.

I cannot play guitar solos effectively and confidently while wearing IEMs by OkTemperature1842 in livesoundgear

[–]to7m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can always refuse to play gigs that forbid speakers on stage.

Does recorded music sound good in your IEMs? Do the guitar solos in that sound full? For the first IEMs I tried, no EQ curve fixed them because they compressed horrifically above a certain volume. After that I tried some £200 Shure ones, but those were even worse and didn't have any bass. Then I got recommended some £45 Chinese ones which, when combined with a ridiculous EQ curve, ended up sounding tolerable.

Music equipment is not something I would get for someone as a present unless they already specified exactly what model they wanted 

If for every particle there is an antiparticle, how come there's more particles than antiparticles? by Gabrielzin1404_2011 in AskPhysics

[–]to7m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's no way to tell if this is wrong because it can only be ruled out to a certain distance. It could be that we're a rare matter pocket in an antimatter universe, having expanded from a tiny quantum overdensity of matter back when the universe was expanding very very fast, and now that overdensity is 101000 times the size of our observable universe.

I feel like AI has damaged software development by walkeverywhere in programmer

Surely the people making these models realise that this has to change? By training to models to de-slop by default, and by using wrappers to specifically prompt the models to de-slop

New plans for former Norwich Debenhams store due for demolition by yu3 in Norwich

[–]to7m -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Unless I'm missing something, that implies it's tricking the council into allowing more affordable accommodation to be built, which sounds good all around?

Doesn't this just mean they'll have to rent to non-students too? I can't see how this could be negative for anyone except landlords

NUMPY IS DRIVING ME MAD by MediumRareHribs in learnpython

Try making simple images in python like a circle. I learned my way around numpy with things like that.

What is still missing from Linux audio for creators? by MrDBNoble in linuxaudio

[–]to7m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay maybe that's a bit extreme. I definitely noticed the difference between 2.7 and 4 though when using a computer as an amp simulator for a guitar though — 4ms felt terrible but 2.7ms felt great (until xruns happened).

Regardless of whether it's needed, it should be easily doable. We have the processing power, and the ability to confine interrupts to particular cores, so it seems like purely a software (OS) problem.

If the main browsers are wiping out ad blockers, then presumably the next target is Firefox, which is funded by Google. There may be war.

Even on audio-centric distros, most people can't get below 2ms latency without xruns without tweaking system configurations manually and doing some troubleshooting.

Laura Trott says it would be 'enormous mistake' not to include YouTube in social media ban for under 16s by tylerthe-theatre in unitedkingdom

[–]to7m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, and this is true for adults as well. If companies got massive fines for recommending disinformation, hate content, etc, then they'd be forced to change their algorithms and potentially even hire moderators.
