i like to listen to music, while playing chess,but all while the music is playing, I have to hear that thud noise that tells me my opponent just moved. What I would like to know is if there is a member who listens to music while plaing chess, and if they know how to erase that noise that comes every time your opponent moves. i listen to utube music, any responces would be appreciated. Thanks!

.. Turn down the volume, as low as it will go, on your 'pc.' In my own case, for doing that, on my "acer-windows" 'pc'; I press down the "Fn" key, {I never even looked up, what "Fn" stands for?!}, while simultaneously tapping the volume-control-key, several times.

.. It's now back to "square 1"!; as the "volume-control-key" solution, will also make it impossible for you to hear your "YouTube" songs!
 
One, 'off-the-wall' suggestion; get Two 'p-cees'! ... One for each Web-site!..

i think i only play chess to music. i usually lose while searching for good music to play...all my speed games are played to mp3 libraries on my computer - house music until i get drinking...then i go to 70's rock, then after really drinking, down to country music. :P, then the staccato brain waves go into coma mode and i play a little loopy :P
 
i use winamp still. the volume with that seems to be independent of the volume from the web-apps, so it's ok. try that maybe. should work.

I can turn down or mute the sounds coming from my browser. All I have to do is open up my Volume Mixer for my Sound Blaster card. Every application has it's own separate volume control.

Thanks for the responce, I chose the play on words because chess and nightclubs both provide a easy escape from life's tribulations and your able to make it through the day.
