Recall Audio - A multichannel audio recording app that has your back, even if you forget to hit record.
Basically it continuously records into a buffer (length is configurable), and if you realize that you wanted to start recording 30 minutes ago you can recall the buffer and have everything saved.
In my work and an audio engineer I was in this situation a couple of times, and since there was no tool for that on the market, I’m building it.
Well generally yes, but that isn’t how it works there.
Since the things they want to measure in their experiments are so atomically small, sensor noise becomes a huge problem.
So it’s not enough to find the sensor readings for NewMysteriousParticleX to be sure that it actually exists, it could just have been noise.
So you have to run the experiment again and again until your datapoint is statistically significant enough that you are sure, it wasn’t just noise.
A couple of years ago there was this case where they almost found a new particle, the significance was pretty close to the threshold - the problem was that this particle was not expected and would have shaken the foundations of particle physics. Some weeks later the particle has vanished back into the abyss of noise.
By multiplying each sample value by 2. Simple as that.
Your digital audio is nothing but a stream of usually 44,100 or 48,000 loudness values per second. You can just multiply them by 2 and use the max/min value of your scale as boundaries (usually you wouldn’t hit them, because if it were loud enough, you wouldn’t turn the audio past 100%, but in the case a value would exceed a boundary, you get some nice clipping )
