RTL Utility is a tool for measuring the Round Trip Latency of your Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) and audio interface. The utility is used for low latency performance testing by system builders, reviewers, device manufacturers and at dawbench.com.
When your DAW sends data to your audio interface for playback, it doesn’t send a continuous stream of data one bit at a time. What it does is fill up a section of RAM called a buffer and sends that in a single message when it is ready. Before sending the next message it has to fill the buffer again. This wait time introduces a latency, or delay, between something happening in your DAW and when you actually hear it.
While you are recording, the audio interface buffers and sends data to your DAW in a similar fashion. This introduces latency into your recordings.
If you send a signal from your DAW, out through the audio interface and back in via a loopback patch, then there will be a round trip latency which is the sum of the output and input delays. This is the RTL.
deej is an open-source hardware volume mixer for Windows and Linux PCs. It lets you use real-life sliders (like a DJ!) to seamlessly control the volumes of different apps (such as your music player, the game you’re playing and your voice chat session) without having to stop what you’re doing.
The plugin is very unique in the sense that it gives you full control over all aspects of the modelled circuit. All values of all the capacitors, resistors etc. can be tuned by the user.
This is a free plugin. It comes in all the usual plugin formats (VST/VST3/AU/AAX), for 32 and 64 bit hosts, and for Mac Intel & Silicon.
SSE is a powerful and versatile software environment designed for soundscape visualisation and quantification. It provides a robust platform for processing audio files, generating useful metrics, and presenting data through intuitive visualisation interfaces. Catering to bioacousticians and data scientists alike,
SSE encompasses an extensive range of tools and capabilities to fulfil diverse user requirements.

Supports Light and Dark mode
Matches your device color theme
Smooth animations
Customizable flyout positions
Includes Repeat All, Repeat One and Shuffle
Listens to both volume and media inputs
Sits unobtrusively in system tray
Audio flyout: Displays Cover, Title, Artist and media controls
“Up Next” flyout: shows what’s next when a song ends
Lock Keys flyout: displays the status of lock keys at a glance
This application uses state-of-the-art source separation models to remove vocals from audio files. UVR’s core developers trained all of the models provided in this package (except for the Demucs v3 and v4 4-stem models).
This Digital Media Renderer Analyser is a test application that evaluates the capabilities of a selected UPnP / DLNA Digital Media Renderer and recommends the optimum server settings for it to run with JRiver Media Center.
Optional Test Files
In addition to the tool, you can also download an optional set of sample test files here – warning download size 100 MByte
Database of Renderer Test Reports
You can download the database collection of the test results of all renderers so far tested here. Note if you want to add your renderer to this collection please email me the report.
This tool removes every kind of trash from your mp3-files. It searches for valid mp3 audiodata-frames and removes everything else. This has the big advantage that it will also remove tags which are in the middle of the file (as is the case with joined tracks) as well as broken frames (half-downloads) and malicious tags (Tag-buffer-overflow bug in WinAMP and Windows XP). Use this tool to cleanup your mp3 files before you add your own tag. No more double tags, or annoying ‘Lyrics’ data containing group names or misspelled song names.
A tool to create audio processing pipelines for applications such as active crossovers or room correction. It is written in Rust to benefit from the safety and elegant handling of threading that this language provides. Supported platforms: Linux, macOS, Windows.
Audio data is captured from a capture device and sent to a playback device. Alsa, PulseAudio, Jack, Wasapi and CoreAudio are currently supported for both capture and playback.
The processing pipeline consists of any number of filters and mixers. Mixers are used to route audio between channels and to change the number of channels in the stream. Filters can be both IIR and FIR. IIR filters are implemented as biquads, while FIR use convolution via FFT/IFFT. A filter can be applied to any number of channels. All processing is done in chunks of a fixed number of samples. A small number of samples gives a small in-out latency while a larger number is required for long FIR filters. The full configuration is given in a YAML file.
Here located unofficial builds of the SoX (Sound eXchange) audio tool with DSD support and other patches (including both DSF & DFF I/O and SDM sox “effect” to convert from PCM to DSD) for OS Windows only. Provided two Windows executable files for 32 & 64 bit systems. Binaries were cross-compiled on Linux using MinGW/gcc on fully static way.
