Scratch Guide Topic: Music, sounds, and audio.


We all know how these things work, right? Does your project’s audio sound a bit low quality? Well, I have some tips for you.

Why does my music on a Scratch project sound low-quality?

Well, Scratch does have its own sound editor but it’s not really that well. I mean, the weirdest part I discovered a long time ago is that if you edit a song on Scratch, it will change from stereo to mono. And in some cases, if a piece of audio is long enough, Scratch will lower the audio’s quality. I don’t know if the Scratch developers makes the editor like that on purpose or just don’t have enough power to make an advanced sound editor. But it’s been like that since Scratch 1.4.

How do I make my songs stay high quality and stereo on my Scratch projects?

There is one simple way to do that. Just upload a piece of audio and DO NOT edit it on Scratch. Uploading a piece of audio on a Scratch project without editing it whatsoever will totally keep the audio’s properties.

What if I want to edit some audio and still want it high quality?

Then use Audacity. If you don’t know what Audacity is, it’s basically like the Scratch sound editor but a thousand times better with lots of cool features to use, such as reverb, echo, normally, distorting, and many more. And it’s free, too! It can also keep the audio stereo and high quality as you edit and its properties will never lose. And finally, you set the bit rate before you export the sound. After you exported the audio from Audacity, upload it to your Scratch project and leave it there. And you can enjoy the nice high quality stereo music on Scratch!

Words can't even describe how I feel about such a clown world we're living in...

Xbox CEO is being replaced by this woman.

Buuuuuttt, I do have some skepticism because she was previously a president of CoreAI of Microsoft with absolutely no gaming background.

And yet, in her note, she said she has no tolerance to AI slop.

The Scratch Team has just recently updated their Terms of Service yesterday, letting you know they now have full permission to use your content to train AI models.

At this point, I encourage everyone to just leave Roblox ASAP.

This has just crossed the line to the point of no return. It’s simply not safe anymore for literally anybody.

Ricky Rabbit's Seasonal Flavoritiez! Season 3 Episode 13 (Wet Dry roundabout)

Let me get this straight, this Vtuber lied about his education, his birthdate, his gender, his nationality, showed a fake MIT degree, and rolled out 3 apologies?

I have never thought someone would go THAT far, holy shoot.

There may be finally some hope for Windows as the backlash from users and even enterprise businesses were strong enough.

I also heard they are probably redirecting their engineers to actually fixing real issues.

Testing out a new move! This move is for all characters

I would love to see how the legal battle goes...
