RESOURCES
As someone with immaculate taste in computing technology, I have taken it upon myself to compile a list of all the computer software I use on a day-to-day basis in the hopes someone finds some of the things I mention useful.
MUSIC
- fooyin
- MusicBrainz Picard
- asunder
- FFAudioConverter
- Shortwave
My prefered desktop music player. Simple, file-based local media playback with a classic interface inspired by the legendary foobar2000.
Batch music tagging tool that supports physical release info. Make your digital music needlessly organized!
Simple CD ripping tool. Excellent for encoding discs to digital formats for local storage. Enable error-checking in settings and use a lossless format like .flac to ensure you get the highest quality rips!
Batch convert audo formats between different codecs. Great for creating MP3 player-friendly versions of your albums from master .wav/.flac files etc.
Excellent little internet radio app!
FILE MANAGEMENT
- Syncthing
- catbox.moe
Cross-platform local file syncing tool. Highly recommended for people wanting to get away from traditional cloud-based storage services who have the storage space to host local files, enables you to create device clusters that automatically update files with changes you make to local copies regardless of device using a P2P connection.
Free, super simple file storage website. Kinda sketchy but I'd vouch for it for sharing non-private media on the web.
CODING
- Kate
My prefered GUI editor, also the editor I use to write much of the html code for this website from. Live view provided by a local PHP server.
