  1. 🙄 Ah, the joys of JPEG XL—the image format that bravely tosses bit depth into the abyss of irrelevance. Who needs precision when you can have chaos? Meanwhile, poor #AVIF is stuck in a corner crying into its extra bits. 🤡

  5. What's really interesting about this trend of distributing music on 3.5" floppy disks is that floppy disks are, and always have been, a 100% digital medium. They're not measured in minutes of play time, but rather in data capacity (typically 1.44MB per floppy disk).

    Musicians who distribute their tracks on floppy disks have to perform all kinds of complicated digital manipulations to a track before it can fit into such a small space, and just as vinyl records and cassette tapes add their own unique character to the music recorded on them, these digital audio manipulation techniques also significantly impact the tonal and timbral characteristics of the finished product. 💾

    The first thing I would try is muting the #MasterBus, leaving all the other settings the same, rendering a silent version of the same track, uploading it, and checking if the hum persists. If so, then the problem is probably somewhere in your #rendering chain, and you can start making minor tweaks, one at a time, to find the culprit by process of elimination. Some examples of minor tweaks I'd try:
    - the #SampleRate and #BitDepth (e.g. 48/24)
    - the #dithering settings (e.g. on/off, type/style, etc.)
    - the file type (e.g. #WAV, #AIFF, #FLAC, #ALAC)

    I hope that helps, but if it doesn't, you should probably reach out to #Bandcamp support.
