Audio Sequences

[Arcath]

Audio builder that would allow for sequences, for example:

• Chime
• TTS Announcement
• Chime

Build sequence, generate audio, save as sound to be used as normal

I'm eagerly waiting for this feature!

My use case: I need to play two different sounds in sequence for school bell ringing. Currently I have to merge MP3 files manually.

This would be a huge quality of life improvement. Looking forward to Sounder 2.0.0!

@pallinko I think for schedules we will have to get OSB to create the merged MP3s with some kind of editor.

I like the broadcast interface but I don't think that would work for building/editing schedules. The idea I have now is to use the WebAudio API to build an in-browser editor that can then save back to the controller.

What if we could simply add multiple sound columns to the schedule? For example: Sound 1, Sound 2, Sound 3... and the system would play them in sequence automatically.

This would be a simpler solution than a full audio editor for my use case - just defining the sequence directly in the schedule interface.

Thinking on it a bit more that is the more consistent approach.

It's just the migration from storing the sound id and count to storing an array of sound ids. From the sounder side the queue system in Sounder 2.x that was built to handle this very issue in broadcasts will make this quite easy to implement.

2 rings of Sound 1 would have to be created as a sequence of [sound1, sound1] which isn't an issue.
