About this Mod
Conductor stops Minecraft's audio system from slowing down your game.
Every time a sound plays, Minecraft makes your game wait for it, which can cause lag and micro-stutters. This performance mod aims to remove these issues, and allow people with lower-end CPUs or devices to run a lightweight mod to target a long-standing issue that Minecraft has had for a very long time.
Made to be used alongside Sodium, Lithium, and other performance mods (too many to list here, but it works with all of them. Let me know if you encounter one that does not in my Discord.)
DISCLAIMER: If you are using a sound mod, do not use this mod. it will not work due to conflict issues. I assume if you have the computer to use a mod like Sound Physics or Sound Physics Perfected, you do not need this mod.
This mod is completely client side, no need to be installed on any server.
Let me know if you liked the mod in my Discord server! I appreciate any feedback you might have.

Conductor server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.21.11). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Server lagging with Conductor – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Conductor consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
