I’ve just completed the initial transition from LAPD to LAD. 😎

I’ll be publishing an article about it in the coming days and will continue refining the content to cover not only #plugin (s), but also other #audiosoftware and even #audiohardware for #linuxaudio.

If you notice anything that could use adjustment, please let me know. 🫣

PD: I haven’t been able to update the Mastodon handle yet — still waiting for feedback from my instance admin.

Fractal Scape: A sleek, minimalist gaming headset with strong audio and thoughtful design

Fractal Scape keeps it simple and doesn’t flood you with useless bells and whistles. EQ customization is straightforward and actually works without forcing you into some clunky app. Beats most noisy rigs at this price, no contest.

I have heard time and again that #linuxaudio is much bigger than most people realize. This is because #linux forms the basis for many #audiohardware products.

So today, I am particularly happy to announce a new #developer #interview: Stefano Zambon from Elk Audio. 🤓

"Elk Audio OS – the complete Linux distro for embedded audio."

Höre mir gerade das Interview der #ct mit Mark Shuttleworth über #Linux, #Canonical und #Ubuntu an. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0M94cmFp3TY

Wieso haben reiche Menschen, die ständig Interviews geben und an Videokonferenzen teilnehmen, so auffallend häufig extrem beschlossene Mikrofone? Fast jedes Laptop-Mikrofon klingt besser.

MOD Insolvency and Reboot

Dear MOD community members I am sad to announce that MOD Devices GmbH has reached the end of its line. This is the result of a two-year crisis that started with the COVID impacts on our supply chain in Q2/2020, and the snowball effect of the cash flow disruption triggered by the failure of the Crowdcube campaign in Q4/2020.

I am benchmarking latency with PipeWire using FOcsurite Scarlett 2i2 3rd gen and Behringer UMC202HD.

So far 2i2 got the minimum latency of ~5 ms at buffer 64 with the LQX kernel.
UMC202HD got ~8ms of latency using the same parameters (latency settings, USB controller and port, etc.) In practice - this is too little to even notice, but it's interesting to see a difference and having a more expansive unit have marignally better performance.
