The Picard ManeuverGo ahead, take a bite.

CMLVIYeah, the only issues I have are virtual mics to filter background noise on Discord. I have a program that does it, but I lose control over playing music as well (I have a solution through Helvum, but I have to do the specific audio paths every boot for Firefox -> Discord, and I can’t individually control the volume. Plus the path dies every time I pause the music).
But it was equally as frustrating to get it set up on windows with virtual cables as it has been to try to get virtual cables to work on Linux, so it’s a push there. Everything else has been basically as easy, give or take some of the learning curves of a new OS, and can be attributed to user error.
I can’t figure out Discord push to talk on Hyprland because of the X11 stuff. Regarding capture cards, I only record on Windows, anything else on that OS feels slow. There is a delightful snappiness to Linux, and adding animations don’t seem to cause any chugging.
Also opening power shell terminal is awful,
1 hold super 2 press x 3 release super 4 press a
It loads slowly.
Windows does not want you accidentally being productive. Bleh.
Your looking for easy effects. It plumbs into the system audio and has every filter you could dream of. I use it both for APO curves on my headphones and then noise removal, gate, and dessing on mic
That’s what someone suggested to me and got me 90% of the way there. The remaining issue is that, on Windows, I had a virtual cable that took browser audio and added it to the discord input so I could individually control volume, and I cannot find a way to do that. I tried to do virtual cables prior to all of this, and just could not get it to work, frustratingly. But, I had equivalent amounts of issues just getting it set up on Windows in the first place, so I’m not super worried about it.
Now I just use Helvum to map the audio from Firefox into the Discord input, but I have to do it every time I log on, and skipping a song or pausing it kills it and I have to redo it in Helvum again. Minor inconvenience, I just don’t have the will to fix it rn.
Ah yeah, that’s how I handle piping audio in the Discord as well it is unfortunate that it can’t remember the connection
