Anon hates Apple
(sh.itjust.works)
This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
well you try recording music on a pc with a stupid fan that won’t shut up….
he did a lot of good and bad things… but more than “just a businessman” b.s.
I volunteered at a university radio station a few times and was taught how to cut out AC/Heater/Fan noise from a recording using audacity on what I think was my second time going in. Recorded a PSA about cancer screening.
It's been almost a decade and a half so I don't remember exactly how, but the point is that it was something they taught people effectively walking in off the street.
I'd imagine it's different with a non-constant fan, but you can force computer fans to a consistent 100% speed through a handful of different ways.
i’m aware of this, but it definitely reduces sound quality
It's just a low pass filter. Since human speech is massively out of the frequency range of a fan, you can just delete that whole frequency wholesale.
Audacity (or Audition/Cool Edit how the old guys know it) is a bit smarter. It can analyze a recording of the noise floor and then just attenuate that. It's bad for quality music but good enough to improve speech, old tape recordings and records.
