What it does

A per-ear audio equalizer for macOS. Investigate a tinnitus tone, translate an audiogram into EQ, and shape system audio with precision other apps don't expose.

SherlockEQ 1.0 is here. Out of beta after 37 releases on the 0.x line. Nothing changed from 0.9.8 — that is the point: the last release had nothing left to fix, so the version number caught up. Release notes macOS doesn't ship a per-ear parametric EQ. Now there's SherlockEQ. It taps system audio, splits the chain by ear, and gives you the controls to investigate a tinnitus tone, shape an audiogram into compensation, refine sound to taste, and soften harshness or lift voices only when they need it. No virtual driver. No kernel extension. No paywall. Independent L/R biquad chains via the Audio EQ Cookbook formulas. Seven filter types: parametric, shelf, notch, band/low/high pass.…from snxt.ai

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  • Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  • Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
