About Vinyl Crackle

🎡 Turn any website into a vinyl listening experience. Vinyl Crackle adds authentic LP surface noise to the audio playing on any website β€” YouTube, Spotify Web, SoundCloud, and more. When you press play, it sounds like you're listening on a turntable. Or switch to Ambient mode and let the crackle play on its own β€” no media required. Perfect for background atmosphere while working, reading, or relaxing. β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” HOW IT WORKS Three procedurally generated noise layers, just like a real record: β€’ Surface Noise β€” The continuous "hiss" from the stylus tracking the groove β€’ Clicks & Pops β€” Random "tick" and "pop" from dust and scratches β€’ Dust Particles β€” Brief "crackle" from particles hitting the needle No audio samples. No downloads. Pure math generating real-time analog warmth. β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” THREE MODES ✦ Off: Crackle disabled. ✦ Overlay: Crackle plays on top of media audio. Activates only when audio/video is playing. ✦ Ambient: Crackle plays on its own β€” no media required. Great for lo-fi background atmosphere. β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” FEATURES ✦ 4 Presets β€” Light Dust: Almost-new LP, subtle texture β€” Warm Vinyl: Well-kept vintage record β€” Worn Record: A well-loved LP with character β€” Antique: Decades-old record, heavy crackle ✦ Fine Controls β€” Surface, Pops, Dust: Adjust each noise layer independently β€” Master Intensity: Control overall crackle volume ✦ Works Everywhere β€” YouTube, Spotify Web, SoundCloud, Bandcamp, and any site with audio/video ✦ Lightweight β€” No background processes when disabled β€” Settings sync across devices via Chrome β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” PRIVACY Vinyl Crackle does NOT collect, store, or transmit any user data. It does not access your audio content. The crackle is generated locally as a separate audio overlay. Your settings are stored only in Chrome's built-in sync storage. β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” Open source: https://github.com/ShinChanU/vinyl-crackle
