Sidenote: this file compression aspect of AI is a generally under-appreciated feature! Distilling giant datasets down to tiny files (a 3.5GB LLaMA model fits easily on your smartphone!) allows you to bring capabilities previously tied to big, extensive, remote servers to your local device! This will be game-changing.)

With an API account and less than a dollar in credits we can transcribe an audio file into a text file then generate speech from said text file. If we only transmit the text file over the network and run our TTS model at the edge, our bandwidth savings are monumental.


I'm testing out using LLMs to rewrite articles for different contexts and audiences. The following content has not been exhaustively reviewed and is presented as a proof-of-concept. Reach out if you spot something egregious or want to know more.


With past versions of Audacity I could compress a 5 minute audio track way down using small bitrate mp3 and changing the HZ setting to a low number. The music sounded like it was coming through a small transistor radio. Conversely I could choose a different format, change the HZ setting to a high number and create a 500 mb file out of a 5 minute audio track.


No need to install WinRar or anything else. Just use Audacity and an appropriate compressed format. As I wrote previously, Opus is the best format for extreme compression. MP3 format is more widely supported.

When we realized the life-changing benefits that compression socks brought to our own Mom's health, we founded Extreme Fit so that we could share those same benefits with everyone! Our love for health and wellness (and our Mom!) drives who we are, what we do, and how we do it. That's why we're committed to the support of Maternal Health.


I notice that everything about it feels "loud". The kick and snaps percussion that opens the song is at air-pushing volume (or gives that impression . . . I'm not sure about the psychology between perceived and actual volume), and the song never gets louder or softer the whole way through. When the chorus arrives with the layered vocals . . . it fills out the song frequency-wise, but doesn't really add any volume or dynamic energy.


Right from the beginning it sounds/feels different. The different components of the percussion sound have different relative volumes in relation to each other. The horn section clearly feels "behind" the vocals.


. . . the bass synth and compy synth/organ/whatever just sit nicely as supporting instruments behind the vocals. When the chorus comes in, the bass backs off. Still modern pop mixing, but with more taste, more variety, and less ear fatigue. In my opinion of course.


Not all pop is compressed to death. Old Town Road (which has been #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for like forever) starts out very quiet and then hits hard at the drop. If you are streaming the track or listening to it on Youtube it may not be apparent, but as a DJ playing the MP3 I absolutely have to aware of it.


AM radio wasn"t the destination or even main delivery system. It was 45s and LPs. In the early days, disc jockeys were just playing the records. The radio broadcasting equipment altered the signal significantly. And just like today, the typical fan heard only the main ideas of a song - the lyric and the tune. Only audiophiles and musicians obsess over high quality audio.


Stuff is being master these days for "good enough" systems because they know most are going to hear it on ear-buds or streaming. Then YouTube and I imagine streaming services are trying to cut down on bandwidth usages and compressing more. Most stuff mastered for good system now their target is for movie theaters, or some TV, but TV is getting to be stream based so bandwidth is an issue so compress the puppy.


Mastering engineers these days keep busy doing multiple masters based on target theater, vinyl, car, home, TV, stream, headphone, and radio and except for first two the targets are all "good enough" devices.


When I think of extreme compression TayTay is nowhere near top on the list. I've typically found that her producers leave a lot of space (comparatively). I think her early stuff is wonderfully produced/recorded. (I have a now teen age daughter if you're wondering why I would even deign to know).


I like this one as well. It's often played in The Netherlands. Fun fact, Mabel is the daughter of Neneh Cherry, half-niece of Eagle Eye cherry and grand daughter of Jazz trumpeter Don Cherry. So, I guess it runs in the family.


I didn't know that about Mabel thanks for the info What originally drew me into the track is it's super catchy synth loop that forms the backbone for the entire song. Once you hear it, you can't get it out of your head . That loop (as well as the whole track) has become a favorite with remixers. There's a version of Rihanna's Cheers with that loop floating around that's gaining popularity.


And you're right about Taylor Swift. Shake It Off came out - what... 5 years ago?... anyway it was right after Pharrell William's huge hit Happy which also featured more of a traditional sound at fast tempo. That's where pop was then - not so much now.


In "You Need To Calm Down", it sounds like the percussion track has been massively overloaded/clipped, and that gives the fatiguing sound familiar to every muso of disco speakers of insufficient quality being pushed beyond their limits.


I agree that the heavy handed flattening of dynamics can make the music exhausting to listen to, not only pop music, but in any genre, recorded or in live performances. If the drummer is hitting everything as hard as he can for most of the night I will literally fall asleep. On the other hand, when I hear guys like Al Green or Dr Lonnie Smith using dynamics masterfully, I am drawn in. I find it funny to have to talk about and plan dynamics with some of my rock musician friends, especially after I have had opportunities to play with other musicians who just make expressive dynamic levels happen, because they listen so well. (Sorry for the OT rant.)


While I spent many years mostly ignoring pop/commercial music (I got to gig a lot in other genres over the years), in the past couple of years I have tried to pay more attention to it. It seems to me that the dynamics that we DO get in pop recordings are due to the arrangements where instruments/parts drop in and out. I find some of the modern arrangements to be fairly clever for that reason. I wish my drummer friends would just drop out of the mix in the same ways that pop producers drop the drum machines out...How can we miss you, if you won"t go away? I agree that I would rather hear singers use their actual voices, rather than use affectations to imitate each other. WTF? It"s like listening to a guitarist play SRV licks all night. While I"m at it, could you just stop using the pitch altered vocal samples that everyone else is using too please? ...


There was the "completely overdriven Mackie mixer" sound of the mid-to-late '90s (Bjrk's "Yoga" and "Army of Me", for example). That utilised distortion from the (pre-VLZ) input stages and the fact that those old Mackies will start massively compressing a mix if you hit it a little harder.


Since at least 1999, Rubin has been criticized by listeners for contributing to a phenomenon in music known as the loudness war, in which the dynamic range of recorded music is compressed and sometimes clipped in order to increase the general loudness.


This just suddenly showed up, the song stops at the same place, initial dialog box says "Too many disk I/O tasks, then the second box pops up saying "Extreme compress factor detected" Both related to Flex Audio. I had tuned some BGs, no more than any other project, so I turned off Flex and bypassed all plugins on the whole project, still the same stoppage. Bounced the BG tracks with plugins, turned power off the original tracks, still stops at the same place. Any ideas of what I'm missing? Not using many plugins on this tune and even when all plugins are bypassed I still can't get past this one spot. Can't bounce the project to finish it.


I only have 3 instruments I used flex timing on, I've screenshot the offending area (where the playhead is) on each instrument -resonator guitar, acoustic guitar, tambourine and vocals - and I see no highly compressed areas, in fact very little use of the flex as you can see by the markers. The vocal track was only flex pitched so no compression there. Referring to the shot of my mixer, very little plugins are used. I've been using Logic for 10 years and never seen this. I wonder if it's some command I inadvertently hit? I'm not tech-savvy much at all, only thing I can offer my clients is my ear. This is why I'm on here today...
