From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Audio on imac running Linux is not as good as on MacOS (lemmy.world)

First Lemmy post for me!

I was going to post on /Linuxquestions but I thought I would try here first.

I have an imac2011 which I ran Ubuntu 23.04, Kubuntu and Ubuntu Cinnamon. I discovered Easy Effects audio app which allowed me to download profiles to enhance the audio from the system.

I recently decided to try OpenCoreLegacyParcher and installed a newer version of macos, which is currently running on my system and the audio quaility is just breath taking compared to Linux.

Is there anyway I can get closer to audio from macos on Linux? I'm considering going back to Linux soon but I think i'll miss how good the audio is :(

Unless you happen to be a bat, setting the output sample rate to 96000 will do absolutely nothing to improve audio quality.

Batman intensifies.

As @holland@lemmy.ml said I shouldn't have set default.clock.rate.

I have 96000 and 192000 in allowed-rates beacause some of my flac are at this sample rate and it avoid resampling them and losing quality (or using CPU in this case because at resample.quality 10 it should not be hearable)
