This is great because I don't have to mess with my physical mixer board to duck my audio (partially fade it out) while I'm talking. Clicking it fades the volume of all playing audio down to a set level (default is 33%, but I prefer 15–20%), and clicking it again returns the volume to normal. Especially wonderful is a customizable Duck button. You can do some basic edits and fades within Soundboard without changing your file, and several features of the program just work beautifully, logically, and simply. Rearranging sounds is easy, requiring now keyboard reassignments. I love that it lays out sounds on a visual representation of my keyboard, so pressing Q will activate the first sound in the second row, Z would be the sound below it, or 4 would be a sound in the top row.
I was excited!Īfter trying the app and its new features, I knew I could be happy with it. I received the email on Friday, November 5, announcing the availability of Soundboard 2.0 and new features.

Ambrosia Software promised to fix it in the next major release, which would be 2.0. Soundboard's mono bug was highly reported and acknowledged. So I stuck with using PodProducer running through No products found. (to run Windows programs without Windows), albeit with some limitations (like no scroll wheel or drag-and-drop).

SoundByte had an ugly interface and high price of $39 BZSoundBoard was free and was better designed for the Mac OS X interface, but it lacked many features and functionality and while Soundboard 1.x was beautiful and had great features, it had a serious bug (playing mono sounds in only the left channel) that turned me off from using it. When I switched to Mac, I tried SoundByte (OS X and Windows, $39), BZSoundBoard (OS X, free), and Soundboard 1.x (OS X, then $29). In the Windows world, we've had the fantastic and free application PodProducer for playing sound effects into our program. Ambrosia Software released the much-needed Soundboard 2.0 and I share a brief review, I'm developing a WordPress theme designed specifically for podcasters, I answer Alan Bunt's question about using a compressor/limiter/gate on a Behringer 1204 mixer, and I share an Audacity tip about pasting.
