Windows (XP at least) control panel -> 'sounds and audio devices' -> 'sounds' Choose the Sound Scheme, 'No Sounds' This will stop _most_ system and system-oriented applications (MSVC6, Word) from generating alert noises and the like. obviously you gotta turn off iTunes yourself ( unless that is your livecoding software of choice ) on that note, if anyone has suggestions on turning off popup and overlay notification in windows entirely, please have at it. Is there functionality (any platform) along the lines of an 'audio firewall' that restricts soundcard access to a set of named or approved applications? Adam Tindale wrote:
Hey All,
Computers beep by default when you make a mistake. This sucks in a concert.
I have recently installed Mac10.4. When I turn off the system volume in the system preferences the terminal will still beep at me. Also vim beeps at me. Here are a few things I did to stop the beeping.
Terminal:
In window settings in the Terminal menu there is now a tab for emulation where the audible bell option lies. Unclick this little monster to make your shell stop beeping.
Vim:
In your .vimrc file I had to put set noerrorbells in order to stop the beeping.
I know that this is different in Linux to get bash to stop. What about windows? Emacs?
I am sure a lot of you will have figured most of this out but it should help that we don't have to hear nasty system sounds at ChucK shows in the future.
Cheers,
