Love what OP has created and is releasing free (thank you!)

Did want to point out some other cheap/free bitcrushers out there for people to try (in addition to MAIM)

https://www.deniseaudio.com/plugins/my-crush is currently free with newsletter sub and was super cheap when I first purchased it.

Some other free vst of note https://bedroomproducersblog.com/2012/03/09/bpb-freeware-stu...

I also like https://camelcrusher.com/


If only there was something you could keep in your apartment that consumes CO2...


You exhale about 1kg of CO2 per day, 27% of it is carbon. Have you ever noticed your plants gaining 300g of matter per day? You need enormous quantities of chloroplast life in your house to help you - and to constantly shovel excess out, impractical.

I have heard about some people keeping an aquarium (with growth lights) full of algae and they swear by it, but maintenance is high.


Yes, you can sequester your exhaust as limestone. Or as soda.

There are no other ways that are affordable enough to be feasible, and don't cause giant energy consumption/pollute the air with smelly chemicals.

Unless you live in a commercial-scale greenhouse, literally in the same room as the plants, you can forget about photosynthesis.


Yes, about 50 square meters of leaf surface per human to offset their CO2 output. https://space.stackexchange.com/questions/26668/how-many-pla...


I know right all this talk about fancy tech and filters how about a sun lamp and a fern lol


Wouldn't that environment be VST?


That looks like an option. But then I need to load the plug in in a DAW of some sort.

If there a simpler, more basic place to use them, like an effects box app for raspberry pi?


check out axoloti, hoxton owl, and CoreFX and FV-1


Totally worth seeing live


While I'd like that to be true, I'm skeptical of that outcome from streaming normalization alone.

All I see in production forums is how can I make my mix louder?

You can blow by Spotify's lufs recommendation, the normalizing just knocks you down, thereby squashing your mix further (even less dynamic range)

A trick could be to have the first 30 seconds or minute of your song at a low amplitude. This will force them to manually increase the volume of their device so they can hear anything. After that initial quiet phase of your song, you can ramp up the volume to the original level! More louder!


That was brilliant, thanks.


They should nickname this "clone-a-tone"



Oh wow, I had no idea. So if it's not a coincidence, does this mean that twitter will host the seditious ponderings of the 45th President again?

Strictly from a business pov, that couldn't be good for stability.


Doubt it, they just announced a citizen journalism ban.

Seems like Dorsey was standing in the way of some censorship and the board replaced him.

People documenting riots like Andy Ngo will be the first to go.


The article mentions a Republican activist investor. Why would someone active in right wing circles push for banning someone doing what Ngo is doing?


That's one new investor. The current board is who pushed Dorsey out.

It seems like that article is just a misdirection piece. Not surprising from The Guardian.


Glitch musicians would like a word.

Maybe you mean digital. As electronic toys can still be modified/screwed with.


Just you wait until your mini-moog has a boot process with a required chain of trust that will reject any circuit bending. That'll teach ya :P


Well you get that there a need for it, and people are trying to find solutions to overcome the issue of latency, that's the whole point, isn't it?


Why did they change it?


Seems like HN policy is that all death announcements get the "John Doe Has Died" title. Probably makes it easier to avoid weird comment threads proclaiming that "John Doe didn't really invent the robotic sex doll!" or what have you.
