Millisecond Reference for Audio

[@andrewf5736]

80ms is the time it takes for the brain to process visual and audio signals, so technically we are living 80ms in the past, so I just had to come find out how long in the past I'm living. Thanks for the upload!

[@toobasicbot2000]

Can I see where you got this information? I am interested in learning more.

[@mikaelovaska8918]

@@toobasicbot2000 I dont know what andrew is referencing to, but predictive mind theory kind of touches that idea. Living 80ms in the past sounds kind a weird, it seems to be more like that sensory information from outside world is received in 80ms in the brain (I dont know if 80ms is correct or not, but surely there is some delay since signals dont just instantly travel to brain from your finger for example) Feldman Barrett's book "How emotions are made" is a great book about this idea.

[@hike4424]

Isn’t it 70ms

[@thatisme3thatisme38]

i can distinguish the 2 ticks starting around 15

[@thatisme3thatisme38]

@@mikaelovaska8918 it's not about the travel part. it's about the processing and making sense of it.

[@AngryHandstands]

This helps so much in gaining a better understanding of just how long these different latency's are, relative to our perception of time.

[@zacsampson9447]

That's why I came here

[@zacsampson9447]

I started hearing two at 5.2 milliseconds but I am extremely attentive and have a mind blowing reaction time. My latency for games is 40-50 milliseconds on a wireless connection hoping to get it down to 30

[@GrubKiller436]

@@zacsampson9447 Doesn't really matter if you're playing most single-player games. Your brain will adjust to when you press the controller and when your character on the screen responds. But it will matter a lot in most competitive games where killing the other guy first is crucial; you will definitely want less than the 40 milliseconds you currently have.

[@davidgreen6920]

Actually really helpful for music... Was looking at the latency of the Waves Plugins I use through Sound Grid, and was finding that some of my racks were getting up to a total of 240 samples of latency (about 5 ms in our system) per rack. It's not great and zero latency would be better, but I wasn't sure how bad that was, but after listening to this and barely hearing the second pop starting after 9.8 ms, I was like, yeah, I'm okay. There's no problem with this. Thanks for posting this. Helped solve an issue I was working on today.

Im that 0.1

[@HeritageDrPepper]

This is truly fantastic. I always thought my 51-61ms latency was pretty good. I had heard of people with 20ms but I've never experienced it. The fact that you can hear two separate, distinct clicks at 15.1ms is astounding. (as opposed to being able to tell that there are two right at 5.1, 15.1 they become separate sounds)

[@slimshadyowns]

this is so helpful...should have way more views..

What a great video. I felt so much better about my latency after reviewing these examples.

It took me a minute to realize the way you were conveying it, and then wow this FTL defense drone III shoots *really* fast at 150ms delay, like oh wow

[@josephgette7137]

This is great representation of latency. Hearing the latency puts it into perspective as you can hear a difference that you may not feel (say between 2 & 4.1 milliseconds.)

[@willowwispvt]

You absolute legend I love you thank you so much

[@phill7507]

I came here to listen how long it took for the titan to transform from biology into physics..I don’t know what is more crazy, the thought of looking it up, or the 20 milliseconds

[@montydaniels1054]

Cool, this was the best as far as being the easiest to follow. So far this video was the best I've watched & for listening. I just wanted to see & hear what a 70 ms delay was like. There's always the chance of an issue like this with bluetooth headsets. Before I start to pay out, I wanted to know first hand what I could end up with. Not the money issue, the hassle of buying, trying, shipping back & over & over again..... Thank you for the upload.....

[@oliverquach9614]

Thanks for this! Now I know two identical signals need to be more than 5ms apart to prevent phase cancellation.

[@alexharkler]

Thanks for this! I'm working on programming electronic drums and I now know that I can ignore any 2x hits of a drum under 5ms apart as it's audibly indistinguishable to a single hit.

FOR THOSE WHO DON'T UNDERSTAND (Paragraphs) General Understanding--> Game Action--> Reaction--> Music Please "Like" my comment so others can see this explanation if they need it, as well! "The amount of time between the first and second pops = the number on the screen. So when 25.0 pops up, you will hear a pop. it means that there is a 25 millisecond delay between the first pop and the time the second pop is heard." -Justin Gabrial (in a subcomment) Imagine the first tick you hear is you clicking your mouse and the second tick you hear is how long it takes for the game to process your action. If you're at 20ms vs 100ms, makes a big difference. If you're thinking about reaction times, say the first tick is the instant something happens and the second tick is how long it takes you to react to it. I actually have no idea how this is meant for music but I have a suggested video on the side called "David Gilmour's delay sounds" which I think should help you.

You did a bad job explaining this, still nobody is going to understand

Sxdlsm lol it was kinda simple to understand

[@HeritageDrPepper]

@@Nyctotope Sorry, I tried. And I don't think I did a bad job; it's kind of rude for you to say that just because you still don't understand. 😔 Or maybe you do understand and you could provide a better explanation at which point you should just do that instead of telling me I did a bad job because everybody understands it differently and the way I understood it and explained the way that I understood it was perfectly fine and will work for some people. If you think you have a better explanation then give your explanation, too, because everybody learns differently and no one way is right or wrong.

[@Nyctotope]

HeritageDrPepper I wish I had the ability to explain and understand stuff the way normal people do but my brain just doesn’t work that way. Maybe your explanation was so simple that my brain thought it was more complicated than it really was.😐 I also apologize for replying with such a rude response I just wasn’t thinking straight and I may have a different way of viewing things. I always seem to get people mad at me and I don’t know why. That’s probably why I don’t have any friends. I’m so immature for someone my age and I’m pretty useless on this earth tbh.

UNLKY HNTR this is why monitors are better as they are usually bellow 4ms

[@jean-naymar602]

Even more crazy when you realise there's about 80ms delay between the moment an external stimulus occurs (eg. a light flashes), and the moment your brain finishes processing it...

[@zacsampson9447]

Mine tested is sub-50ms

@@zacsampson9447 how'd you test that? Also, you must game a lot lol. I love the experience of a gamer reacting to something before they even consciously register it.

I have no idea what this is but this was pretty interesting

[@playaspec]

A hard panned left/right version would be very useful. This helped me regardless.

[@HeritageDrPepper]

What do you mean? Like the screen is divided into two sections and they also flash at the intervals for a visual queue? The number would stay centered, however, considering that's the entire point, that the first tick you hear is the action you make and the second tick you hear is how long it takes for that action to be registered, so to speak.

[@HorizonDex]

@@HeritageDrPepper you can have audio output only on left or right speaker. i think he means that the first click is on the one side and the second on the other

[@SethCrosby]

Thanks! This is very helpful.

[@GrubKiller436]

Very nice audio model of milliseconds. Extremely simply yet informative. I'm wondering if there will be a visual version as well.

[@alessandrocossu1466]

There's the phisical limit of the video's frame rate. Best case scenario if the video is 60 hz the only visual representation you'll get is for 16,6666667ms aka how much time a single frame takes to refresh. In a 120h video the same number becomes 8,33333333 and 3,33333333 for a 300hz video
