PatchMyGear – a living map for your studio gear (cables and checklist)
Hello HN, I’m a hobby music producer with a changing studio setup and got tired of losing track of what’s patched where (especially after gear swaps). I built PatchMyGear, a website to map audio setups / routing and generate a cable list + wiring checklist, save / load locally. (no signup) Let me know what you think. Happy holidays!

I've built a tool for musicians using modular gear2022 · patcher.xyz · ▲53Hello HN, not many will know what this tool is about, but it's launch day and I always dreamed of posting on HN. Let's start! This is a tool for people using eurorack gear. For synth people. What is cool about my tool is that I show the signal flow with a graph. Here's the official press text: After a decade of stagnation in this space we are excited to present patcher.xyz: the modern way to manage everything modular. It’s a tool for professionals, enthusiasts, and casual wigglers. Novadays artists must develop their own means of taking notes, often on paper, since there is no common format…
Web Audio Studio – A Visual Debugger for Web Audio API GraphsMar 2026 · webaudio.studio · ▲64Hi 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…
- MAMusic Audio Search Engine Using OpenAI's Embeddings on GPT Descriptions2023 · muzic-sage.vercel.app · ▲92
I am excited to announce a new tool for music producers and audio enthusiasts - a music audio search engine. With just a simple description of the groove you're looking for, our semantic search engine will output the most similar audio in seconds. I used the Freesound.org API to upload over 3,000 grooves to MongoDB, and combined all the relevant data such as tags, title, description, BPM, etc. into OpenAI's Text-Davinci to generate a unique description of each sound. I then embedded these descriptions using the Ada Embeddings Model and inserted them into Pinecone DB vector database, making…
I made tool for slicing up samples to Ableton Move presets2024 · github.com · ▲50I recently got Ableton Move and was disappointed by how difficult it was to convert samples into Move-compatible drum racks, so I made a simple CLI tool for that. I hope others find it useful, and at some point, Ableton sees the need and provides us with a built-in solution.
