Jukebox 360°

Jukebox 360° is a small client-side audio fix mod for Fabric, Forge & NeoForge.
Focused on compatibility, simplicity, and solving one issue.

📖 About 📖

It prevents the annoying “turn away = almost silent” behavior by keeping jukebox and note blocks audible even when you’re not looking at the sound source, while still preserving natural distance falloff and retaining a bit of directionality.

While I am aware of similar mods that try to solve the same issue (Great example – Audio Improvements by NamelessJu), but they all have their limitations that this mod acknowledges and fixes. 

✨Main differences from similar mods:

• The audio can still retain directionality (configurable amount)
• The audio retains distance falloff
• Works with most modded Music Discs
• Works with AudioPlayer mod (Custom Music Discs) [Only 1.21.10 & 26.1.x]
• Works with Etched mod (Custom Music Discs & Playlist Jukebox Block)
  
• Works with Music Disc Maker mod (Custom Music Discs & Golden Jukebox Block)
• Compatible with Sound Physics Remastered (and similar sound+occlusion mods, since it doesn’t disable their systems—just prevents the extreme angle-muting edge case.)

⚙️ In-game config available

1. Anchor Blend
   Controls how strongly the audio is kept 360° around the player.
   vanilla-like directionality = 0%  —–  100% = least turn-away volume loss
2. Audio Source Block Whitelist
   Add modded jukeboxes or other music-playing blocks that should use Jukebox 360.
   (Includes default support for Minecraft Jukebox, Music Disc Maker’s Golden Jukebox, Etched Album Jukebox and Etched Radio.)

Feel free to use this in any modpack.
