Millisecond
Optimize your Linux system for low latency audio
Install / Use
/learn @gaheldev/MillisecondREADME
Millisecond is a gtk app based on rtcqs.
It provides system diagnostics and offers tips to improve low latency performance for audio production, with links to detailed documentation from linuxaudio wiki.
In future releases, I intend to allow running fixes from the app whenever possible.
