Simple Soundboard
by kvxd
Simple Soundboard plays MP3 and standard audio files through Simple Voice Chat, so anyone in the voice channel hears the clips as part of the microphone stream.
What it does
Playback goes into the voice chat stream rather than to local speakers alone. Clips are mixed with the microphone input, which means nearby players who use Simple Voice Chat hear the sound as if it came from the speaking player. The mod is a client mod, so only the player who runs the soundboard needs it, and servers can run without it.
A graphical screen lists the sounds, and each one can be triggered from there. Two separate volume sliders control what the player hears and how loud the clip is for others, so a sound can be quiet locally while still audible in the stream. A configuration button on the soundboard screen opens the settings.
The mod is published for Fabric on 1.21.10, 1.21.11, 26.1.2 and 26.2, and needs Fabric API, Fabric Language Kotlin and Simple Voice Chat to run. Released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, the source code is open and public links exist for the source and the issue tracker.
