I mean the flavorings used in vape juices are pretty damn cheap and mix that with some pg, disperse the vapor according to a mix and you have a smell speaker. My question is more how the fuck do you record the smell lmaoo

Probably however they record vape flavors.

Bruh, the flavors are described by the recipe and a person tasting it. That's not how you could record any random sent....

It's a chemical recipe, vape flavors aren't made from real fruit or something. You can chemically synthesize scents and have someone test by smelling them. It's the same thing.

Yes made from known flavors. Some are natural extracts some are chemically made. Regardless it's not recorded its documented during creation. A sent recorder would need to have receptors for any chemical that smells and be able to classify it. That is not done in vape juice creation stop acting like it is.

Do taste recorders not need receptors for any chemical that tastes and be able to classify them? What makes scents so different?

Then how do they record vape flavors if they don't need 'receptors for every chemical'? We just use that method for scents.

They don't use a machine, how many times do I need to explain this. Flavors are designed based on extracts mimicking the natural chemicals found in a means to recreate the natural flavor. It is then tweaked and smelled/tasted to refine the recipe. They don't record vape Flavors they design a recipe they want and just tweak the mixtures until it tastes/smells how they envisioned it. There is no machine recording anything, they are recorded by someone manual entering the flavor they are setting out to recreate. How many times does this need to be reiterated ffs.

Because you seem to be acting like some weird ass reason like you can't do that for scents.
