For a project I was looking for a #screenreader#accessible soundboard for Windows, where you assign hotkeys to a sound, and they play without bringing another window into focus. I'm surprised nobody has made this, with all of the radio broadcasters in our community. Surely Google is just failing me! #blind#a11y
@fastfinge I would honestly love to see something like this - it’s why I continue to use Farrago on Mac. It’s the only accessible soundboard app I’ve found beyond Backpack Studio for iPad which I never liked for broadcast.
@stevenscott@fastfinge In fact, I could implement something like this in the program I’m developing: github.com/michaldziwisz/sara/ The program already has a jingle player with banks that you can switch between. What prevents me from adding global jingle playback is the fact that, for it to work efficiently, it would be necessary to register some kind of global modifier. Only after pressing that modifier would it be possible to trigger a specific jingle or change the bank. Personally, I can’t really imagine another way of doing it, but I’m open to suggestions.
@midzi@stevenscott Yeah, that makes sense to me. Although for me personally, entire radio automation software is overkill. I'm using this to trigger sounds during interactive in-person powerpoint presentations.
