Mika<p><a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Linux" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a> audio is bizarrely confusing to a regular user lol - if I were to configure a <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/PulseAudio" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PulseAudio</a> setting (i.e. <code>clock.force-quantum</code>) but obviously most systems now have moved to using <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/PipeWire" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PipeWire</a>, but from what I can tell or think to understand is that systems use PipeWire via something called <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/WirePlumber" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WirePlumber</a>, should this (user-specific) configuration be done in a WirePlumber config, or PipeWire? I normally could learn these things easily through the <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/ArchWiki" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ArchWiki</a>, but so far, this topic is completely lost on me lol.</p>
the esoteric programmer<p>I'm not sure how many people on here run archlinux, but recently, a contribution I made to speech dispatcher, namely the pipewire module I talked about a while ago on here, got in the arch package.<br><br>Before wooping with joy and other similar feelings because something I made, with the help of the maintainer of course, got into a mainline distribution people actually use, not just in my computer, it'd be really nice if I could know whether it made any tangible difference.<br><br>So then, here are afew of the things I hoped to come true with the introduction of a pipewire native audio module:<br><br>* less battery usage by speech dispatcher<br>* the ability to be able to speak normally, even in high stress environments, such as low-memory and so on<br>* lower cpu consumption<br>* lower latency when speaking and being interrupted often, the case of screenreaders fits perfectly here<br><br>Now, I'm absolutely no statistician, and I don't know how to even begin to measure any of this. So, here is me asking help from the wider fediverse.<br><br>For the people who know how any of this part works, can you take afew measurements of the performance of speechd, both with and without the pipewire support enabled? I'm primarily interested in the situations I mentioned before, especially the latency, does well under load and consumes less resources aspect.<br><br>For anyone who sees this, can I please have a boost? :p it would be incredibly helpful for me to know if this improved anything, even if one bit, and if it was worth going on and on about latency improvements regarding pipewire. I tried to do local tests with sound first, the results were positive, and so was my experience with using speech dispatcher with this module enabled. It could be because of my older computer, but I definitely feel a difference, although not a huge one. If there are other bottlenecks, I'm not sure they're in audio anymore, unless my code is flawed, which could definitely be and a deeper review on that by someone who knows audio stuff better than me should probably be done at some point, but I'm trying to get an inkling into the benefits this had, if any.<br><a href="https://social.stealthy.club/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>linux</span></a> <a href="https://social.stealthy.club/tags/pipewire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pipewire</span></a> <a href="https://social.stealthy.club/tags/archlinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>archlinux</span></a> <a href="https://social.stealthy.club/tags/statistics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>statistics</span></a></p>

🅴🆁🆄🅰 🇷🇺Easy Effects очень неплох, это который эквалайзер, но скорее больше: «Audio Effects for PipeWire Applications».<br>Можно рекомендовать тем, кто задумался о приобретении внешней звуковухи ради более яркого звучания музыки. Позволит поиграться и со встроенной, понять, надо ли что-то другое или пары крутилок хватит в этом.<br><br>Полезно и для тех, у кого микрофон шумами изобилует или хочется подправить звук идущий с него в какую-нибудь VoIP или же ВКС.<br>От звонких согласных полностью не спасёт ни это средство, ни другие. От речи нетренированного обывателя даже «экраны» плохо помогают (работать над произношением всё равно придётся).<br><br>#<a class="" href="https://hub.hubzilla.de/search?tag=audio" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">audio</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.hubzilla.de/search?tag=music" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">music</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.hubzilla.de/search?tag=linux" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">linux</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.hubzilla.de/search?tag=easyeffects" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">easyeffects</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.hubzilla.de/search?tag=pipewire" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">pipewire</a> @<a href="https://3zi.ru/@Russia" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Russia</a>
