• Show HN: Homi, open decision model for audio, near Flash on MMSU and 50x cheaper · score 7.8

  Homi is an open decision model for audio that answers typed questions (yes/no, multiple-choice, scored levels) about audio clips, using a Qwen3-Omni-based architecture with a decision head instead of text generation. It claims strong performance on VocalGrad and MMSU benchmarks at significantly lower cost than Gemini Flash, with a fully reproducible training and evaluation pipeline.

• Show HN: I made a professional audio time-stretcher in Go · score 7.0

  Nanowarp is a Go library and CLI implementing a phase gradient heap integration (PGHI) phase vocoder for high-quality audio time stretching, with careful handling of transients and stereo coherence. It brings a research-grade algorithm into an accessible Go package, though it still has known issues and lacks pitch shifting.

• Show HN: Legato 0.2.0 – An open source realtime audio framwork for Rust · score 7.0

  Legato is a graph-based Rust framework for building realtime audio and MIDI applications like VST plugins, synths, and sequencers. It combines a minimal DSL for graph orchestration with a performant runtime, custom nodes, and macro patching, aiming to make audio programming accessible while offering advanced users low-level control.

• Show HN: Soundscaper – Audacity 4-like audio editor in the browser · score 6.7

  Soundscaper is a browser-based audio editor that replicates Audacity 4's UI and adds extra features, built by a former Audacity designer using web technologies and WASM. It also offers desktop versions and is owned by a non-profit, aiming to provide a free, open-source alternative without monetization.
