   A Complete waste of time from a 4 decade mac pro user

   Takes forever to send even small video files with high speed internet. Horrible documentation for transferring instructions. No option in the app menu to choose a destination folder. There's no way to compress all of your videos on an android to send to the Mac, even though that is suggested in their "features". And not 1 single video could I find in 2 hours of google searches that answered these questions. For a company touting such "ease of use", as a 40 year mac user, this was another waste of time app. If the company would like to contact me and answer these questions, if it is indeed an "easy, reliable app", I will gladly help them make a video that actually walks people through the problems I have encountered.

   Excellent way to share a folder with multiple files to another computer

   SnapDrop does an excellent job in sharing multiple files to another computer. Just zip/compress a folder with multiple files and select that zipped folder to send to the other computer or mobile device.

   🏁 Competitors: AirDrop by Apple

• Waves New Subscription Program

  What’s everyone’s thoughts? No more updating old plugins you already own. Only way to upgrade is subscribe to their new plan. You can’t buy any licenses anymore. Seems like a good way to ax all your old customers, but would love to hear everyone’s thinking. waves.com. Source: about 1 year ago

• Help me find the name of those app I circled.

  This looks like something from waves audio (waves.com) but not sure what the software would be. Source: over 2 years ago

• I need advice on minimizing "bleed over" of vocals into guitar mic if I'm doing a one-take type recording (vocals+guitar one mic for each at the same time)

  a simple thought would be to download NS1 noise reduction plugin from waves.com for 20-30 bucks nowadays, and throw it on your guitar takes, it has literally one knob and it controls the background noise in takes, works wonders on vocals and guitars alike. Good luck! Source: about 3 years ago

• New to this... Indian Voice, looking for feedback.

  DAW: Adobe Audition Noise Reduction: NS1 from waves.com Microphone: Audio Technica AT815b Line + Gradient shotgun mic Interface: Zoom H4n (will be upgrading to a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 really soon). Source: about 3 years ago

• Ask HN: Those who use an Android and macOS, how do you manage sync?

  Https://snapdrop.net/ is a great solution that unlike KDE doesn't require installation. Along with https://webwormhole.io/ they are my go to for transferring assets between systems. Both use WebRTC. - Source: Hacker News / 25 days ago

• WebRTC API

  Snapdrop.net is one of many examples of the uses for this API, using it with WebSocket API allows endpoints on the same local network to distribute files and send data between them. We can find the source code for the project here. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

  Here is a list of open source options. This isn't the first time I have shared this on here either. Perhaps this is another sign that web search is failing us.
