#i also considered 14 - teleportation noises - which is also a joey detector

OH ALSO, finally sat down to get a decent drawing of Sammy's calibration device in the corrupted world au!

How it works: the backpack holds a book bent open to a specific page, the comparator built into the top converts that to the specified strength of redstone signal, and the pauldron just helps keep that redstone in contact with the line of amethyst running through his head.

The redstone basically attunes the sensor to a specific category of sound, so he just has to pick a category that he doesn’t hear often and he’ll click a lot less. If he takes the backpack off, he functions like a normal sculk sensor again. Probably would want to take breaks anyway since like.... IT IS RUNNING A REDSTONE SIGNAL THRU HIS HEAD... but still a big relief to be able to dull the sensor's reactions.
