I've always dreamed of having my own soundboard as a GM to use during our sessions, so I decided to make one myself! It’s currently a work in progress, but feel free to check it out here (works best on desktop in the Chrome browser): https://oraora.nl/GoblinGrooves/index.html

I'm looking for more inspiration for sounds to add. Are there any sounds you think would be great additions, or are essential to add?

Here are the sounds included so far:

Sound FX:

Forest ambiance
Cave ambiance
Water waves
Howling wind
Thunder and rain
Crackling fire
Town ambiance
Tavern ambiance
Knocking
Creaking door
Boiling potion
Wolf howl
Monster growl
Explosion
Sword unsheathing
Laser gun shot
Gun shot
Rapit fire gun
Lighting strike
Wilhelmscream
Horse running
Trumpet announcement
Phone ringing
Energy charge
Sinister cackle
Heartbeat
Magic sparkles
Siren

Music (3 different sets for each type):

Calm music
Festival music
Battle music
Scary music

I make sure only to use music and sounds labeled as Creative Commons 0 or free to use for non-commercial purposes.

Any suggestions for additional sounds or feedback on the website would be very welcome!

I feel like a Wilhelm Scream should be in there.

[–] Coco_Coen@ttrpg.network 2 points 5 months ago

Nice, haha I agree! I'll put in on there as well

Golf clap.

Yakety Sax. (added in edit)

[–] Coco_Coen@ttrpg.network 1 points 5 months ago

haha nice, for the comedic moments, I'll add them to the list!

[–] copacetic@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Nice work! Here is my quick brain dump:

trumpets for an announcement
horses riding
goblins cackling
force field / magic sizzling

By the way, isn't the light-dark switch inverted?

[–] Coco_Coen@ttrpg.network 3 points 5 months ago

Thank you for the suggestions! I like them :^) I'll add them to the list of sounds to add. And thank you for noticing the inverted switch, haha whoopsie, I just fixed it

[–] Coco_Coen@ttrpg.network 2 points 5 months ago

Thank you for the suggestions! I've included the ones I could find that are copyright free on the website :^)

Finally coming back to this after having it open in a tab for months, lol

I have two bits of feedback. One is that some sounds might be better as one-offs that automatically just play once, rather than being a continuous loop. The rainstorm and forest sounds are good loops, but a lightning strike or gunshot might make more sense as single presses.

Kinda related, I can’t imagine it makes much sense to play two music tracks at once. Switching between them might make more sense as a radio button type experience rather than a checkbox.

Other than that though, this is great. Really simple to use and very clear, but with a great range of options.

Hi Zagorath! Thank you kindly for taking another look and your feedback is good. I just had the time to include the changes, it works better now! Thanks!
