About The Project

Chamber is a fast and light-weight audio library to handle playback, search & download, transcoding, trimming, and audio recording.

The problem

Compiling audios is HARD! It's often a multi-step process to handle various conversions, each step taking an ample of time. It is also difficult storing it if you have a hard time organizing your files (like I do).

Here is a graph of a common workflow for collecting and converting audio files:

The real kicker is that you have to do this all over again for the rest of your audios. Chamber attempts to fix this by streamlining all of these steps through concurrency and an ergonomic UI.

Chamber supports the following features:

• Basic audio playback features and playlist support
• Parallel downloads from YouTube; add audios to a download queue and download in batches!
• Transcoding; convert audios into mp3, ogg, opus, m4a, and m4b
• Waveform trimmer to clip and save sections from an audio
• (BETA) Audio recorder based on microphone input

Getting Started

To download chamber on to your machine, it is as easy as downloading the release bundle. However, if you wish to build from source or contribute to the project, refer to the following:

Prerequisites

1. Install C/C++ build tools
2. Install Webkit (Linux and Windows only)
3. Install Rust

Please address these instructions in Tauri's official docs

Installation

1. Clone the repo

   $ git clone https://github.com/AarhamH/chamber.git

2. Install NPM packages

   $ npm install

3. Run npm setup. This step is necessary as it bundles ffmpeg and yt-dlp into the Tauri build

   $ npm run setup

4. Run the Tauri dev environment

   $ npm run chamber //this will not re-render app when Rust change is made

   $ npm run tauri dev // this will re-render app when Rust change is made
