Using prime numbers to set delay times in the studio

Original: Math et musique (poke @ antoinechambertloir ) De l'usage des nombres premiers pour définir le temps de delay en studio.

A French-language discussion highlights how prime numbers can be used to define delay times in music studios, a trick that keeps repeated echoes from piling up into a single rhythm. The conversation also references Steve Albini, the late engineer known for his unconventional recording techniques. It is a niche but lively exchange between math and music enthusiasts, notably poking mathematician Antoine Chambert-Loir.

Why now: The unusual intersection of number theory and studio recording practice is being shared among math and music enthusiasts.
