• Ask HN: Getting Started with DAW?

  So, I saw the other day the release of the ep-133, and it happens that I want to get started doing that kind of stuff (e.g., creating simple beats). I have zero knowledge about DAW/sampling and music in general (my background is in soft. engineering), so the first thing that I searched on Google is "open source daw" and I found LMMS (https://lmms.io/). I'm going through the documentation right now. Do you know... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Midi I/O vs USB

  Of course, you need some kind of DAW software in your PC that receives MIDI (from LPK), creates the audio data and sends them to Volt. If you have zero experience with this, start with some kind of simple and self-contained DAW, like e.g. "LMMS" (free download). Later you can graduate to more complex (and expensive) DAWs and separate VST plugins. Source: 11 months ago

• Linux for Video Editing and Photo Editing and Music DJ: Some idea?

  For music making, it kind of depends on what you use normally but LMMS is a decent free DAW. Source: 12 months ago

• My dual boot with windows 11 won't boot past intro screen or even into bios after failed attempt to fix frequent Kerbal panic.

  Give a try to Ardour, LMMS, MusE and Rosegarden. Source: 12 months ago

• Looking for some editing software

  Take a look at: Shotcut for video. Paint.NET for image editing. LMMS for your soundtrack. All free. Source: about 1 year ago

• concerns over track quality on soulseek

  Yeah, sure. I use Lossless Audio Checker, which is single threaded but seems to generate fewer false negatives. That is to say it's slow, but doesn't flag genuine lossless files as probable mpegs as much. My biggest beef with LAC is how annoying it is about its log files. It doesn't save them in the folder with the FLACs so I have to manually copy every log file from my Documents folder to the proper location.... Source: about 1 year ago

• Programmatically finding the best quality of a given audio file?

  You can use this to check for artificially inflated bitrate/bitdepth, its fairly accurate, or fbits which can detect exactly how much of the bitdepth is being used. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Don't trust those random "hi-res" downloads.

  If you have Windows, the Lossless Audio Checker can tell you in about 2 seconds if a WAV or FLAC file has been upsampled/ upscaled/ transcoded. There is also a CLI version for Mac. Source: over 2 years ago

• How to check for fake flacs

  Losslessaudiochecker.com paired with spek.cc when in doubt gets the job done. Source: over 2 years ago

• I have made a python program that takes a playlist link as an input and downloads the songs for you(more info in comments)

  I read about it about a year ago and recently did some tests using https://losslessaudiochecker.com/ to see for myself. And indeed, some songs 320 or FLAC audio files I sourced from deezer were upscaled. Source: over 2 years ago
