Little to no audio responsiveness
So for some reason, only this specific wallpaper doesnt want to respond good. When everything audio related in my computer is completely maxed out, and only the volume knob on my dac is lowered so that my ears don't die (this doesn't impact anything besides what I hear), alongside the audio-reponsiveness slider cranked up to 100, the icosahedron barely jitters. The dac I use is a Scarlett 2i2 1st gen, the music program I use is MusicBee, and the songs/eq I listen to/use are generally very bass heavy. Despite all this, the surrounding particles don't shift according to the bass. Even editing the .json file and raising the limit for that slider seems to do nothing, unlike other wallpapers.

If you could fix this, that'd be awesome, and if anybody has any other advice that'd be great as well!

Despite all this tho, the background is very pretty and nice, keep up the good work!

Hmm, yea at 100 I turn a lot of dampeners off to increase sensitivity.. it's pretty exaggerated. https://i.imgur.com/DXE0pPr.gifv

I downloaded MusicBee just to make sure but I don't think is the issue. I can't say for sure. I'll have to keep trying some things on my end. I don't have a dac either. Since it's only happening for you with this wallpaper, i'm all the more confused.

I'm curious if this might work for you https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/39532/how-to-enable-stereo-mix-in-windows-7-to-record-audio/

Thanks for your reply, I tried enabling stereo mix and setting that as my default I put (that's all I could think of using it for), but still no increase in response. I can send you some demos later when I have more time, so just tell me what you want.

EDIT: Here's a little video I made to show you what I mean by no responsiveness https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpHOYc4uoAk&feature=youtu.be
