@wajahat_murtazaย Really appreciate the "build one thing and do it well" philosophy. Open source, lightweight, and no paywalls is a refreshing combination these days.
@aren_barseghyanย Thank you! That was exactly the goal from day oneโkeep AudioPad focused, lightweight, and accessible to everyone. Really glad that philosophy resonated with you. Thanks so much for the support! ๐

This made me laugh ๐ญ
Honestly, I respect the decision to keep this simple instead of trying to turn a soundboard into a "creator platform" with subscriptions, accounts, and cloud features nobody asked for. The open-source + no tracking approach is also a nice touch. For something that's literally just supposed to play sounds through your mic, that's exactly what I'd expect.
Curious... what was the hardest part technically? Getting low latency, virtual microphone compatibility, or making it work consistently across Discord, Zoom, Teams, and games?
@andrasczeizelย Haha, thank you! ๐ That was exactly our thinking
The biggest technical challenge was definitely making virtual microphone routing work reliably across different apps and operating systems. Every platform handles audio devices a little differently, so getting a consistent, low-latency experience on Discord, Zoom, Teams, games, and other apps took a lot of testing and fine-tuning. We also leveraged soundboard drivers to help with the audio routing and compatibility side, which made it much easier to deliver a smooth experience across different setups.
Love it. Global hotkeys and dedicated volume sliders are fantastic ๐
Trying it right now on my Fedora ๐ Does it work on MacOS too?
@mlagiewkaย Thank you! ๐ I'm glad you're enjoying it on Fedora!
macOS support isn't available yet, but it's definitely on our roadmap and we're actively working on it. ๐
The hotkey setup was surprisingly intuitive, and latency was basically nonexistent when I tested it in a Discord call. Definitely bookmarking this for streams.
