About Far
Far is one of the gentlest discs in the game — a calm, melodic piece built on soft synth pads that feels closest in spirit to Minecraft’s ambient background music. Many players keep Far in a jukebox at their main base precisely because it does not demand attention. It appears on C418’s Minecraft – Volume Beta and outputs a comparator signal of 5.
How to get Far in survival
Dropped when a skeleton or stray kills a creeper.
Once you have the disc, place it in a jukebox to play it. A redstone comparator reading the jukebox outputs a signal strength of 5 while Far is playing, which redstone builders use to detect exactly which disc is in the box.
Replacing Far with your own music
Far’s mellow reputation makes it a natural slot for chill, lo-fi or acoustic replacements that should sit in the background of a build. It exists in every version MineVinyl supports. As with all discs, only the audio changes — the item, its name and its texture stay vanilla.
- Open the MineVinyl generator and select Java Edition 1.0 or later.
- Upload your audio to the Far slot. MineVinyl converts it to the mono OGG Vorbis format Minecraft expects — here's why mono matters.
- Download the zip and install it like any resource pack. Play Far in a jukebox to hear your track.
Only the audio changes — the disc item, its name, texture and loot sources all stay vanilla, and every disc you don't assign keeps its original sound.
