24 alternatives to OpenMeters – A fast and free audio metering/visualization suite
This has been a pet project of mine for the past ~5 months. It consists of six visualizations: - Spectrogram: Implements the reassignment method for sharper time and frequency resolution. - Spectrum analyzer: A-weighted, frequency guidelines, loudest frequency tooltip. - Waveform: Colored based on frequency, loudness, or static - Oscilloscope: Tracks pitch and autocorrelates against a reference signal, provides stability. Also includes a regular zero-crossing trigger. - Stereometer & Phase meter: Linear and exponential scaling modes, adjustable windows. Multi-band correlation meter. -…

Hey HN, Nir, Gal and Tomer here. We’re open-sourcing a set of extensions we’ve built on top of OpenTelemetry that provide visibility into LLM applications - whether it be prompts, vector DBs and more. Here’s the repo: https://github.com/traceloop/openllmetry. There’s already a decent number of tools for LLM observability, some open-source and some not. But what we found was missing for all of them is that they were closed-protocol by design, vendor-locking you to use their observability platform or their proprietary framework for running your LLMs. It’s still early in the…

Last April I shared about my Resonate project here (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43694157) A lot has happened since: the work I presented in much more detail at last June's International Computer Music Conference (ICMC) got best paper award. I also gave a talk at the Audio Developer Conference in Bristol last November, the video is on YouTube). This year's work, which I recently presented at this year's ICMC, starts with known techniques from the phase vocoder literature to build self-tuning filter banks that extract very efficiently the frequency components that are…

We're happy to present Veena Chromatic Tuner, an app we've developed for musicians, instrument makers, and ethnomusicologists who need more than just a standard chromatic tuner. Our goal was to create a tool that not only supports pitch detection but also provides deep support for diverse musical intonation systems and offers intuitive visual feedback. The Problem We're Solving: Many tuners are good for Equal Temperament, but has limited support when it comes to the Just Intonation, microtonal music, or the specific requirements of instruments like the Veena where fret positions are…

If you've built any web-based app in the last 15 years, you probably used something like Datadog, New Relic, Sentry, etc. to monitor and trace your app, right? Why should it be different when the app you're building happens to be using LLMs? So today we're open-sourcing OpenLLMetry-JS. It's an open protocol and SDK, based on OpenTelemetry, that provides traces and metrics for LLM JS/TS applications and can be connected to any of the 15+ tools that already support OpenTelemetry. Here's the repo: https://github.com/traceloop/openllmetry-js A few months ago we launched…

Hi HN, I’ve been working on a browser-based tool for exploring and debugging Web Audio API graphs. Web Audio Studio lets you write real Web Audio API code, run it, and see the runtime graph it produces as an interactive visual representation. Instead of mentally tracking connect() calls, you can inspect the actual structure of the graph, follow signal flow, and tweak parameters while the audio is playing. It includes built-in visualizations for common node types — waveforms, filter responses, analyser time and frequency views, compressor transfer curves, waveshaper distortion, spatial…

This started out when I vibe-coded a guitar scale fingering generator. It came out pretty good, and I started adding stuff to it: chords, then how chords and scales interact. Then I added charts for other instruments I mess around with: piano, cello, alto recorder. There's a complexity toggle to go from basic harmony to extended/experimental stuff. It's honestly still mostly a toy, but I thought other people might be interested in playing with it. Source is on github, so it's easy enough to run locally and fork. https://github.com/aleshh/gtr-scales
