Bug Fixes / Tweaks: Custom SoundPad
Added 2019-05-19 18:08:38 +0000 UTCGreetings Patrons,
I was working with someone over on Twitter to see if I could solve their particular issues with Custom SoundPad when I realized that I had broken something in the last update.
The 'Get Link' feature, which many of you use for backups and sharing, wasn't properly including all the scene information. I managed to track down how I had botched this and fixed it.
Also, as I was poking around in the code, another scene related issue came up. When you saved an existing Custom SoundPad, to a new name, all the scenes disappeared when you reloaded the newly saved copy. I finally figured out what was going on and fixed this as well.
As a reminder, everything from playlists to Custom SoundPads to scenes is saved in your browsers' local storage as a simple text file. If you have data-clearing plugins that you use to scrub your browsers every once in a while, they will delete all of these files.
Cache clears are fine: local storage contents survive a cache clear.
tl;dr:
- Scenes are now included in the Get Link feature (again).
- Re-Saved SoundPads with a new name now include any scenes from the original.
Thank you all for your continuing support!
Best,
Tim

2019-06-19 16:26:35 +0000 UTCI really appreciate the work you put in the web-enabled soundboards, but I generally just download the .ogg files and use them with Farrago on my Mac. It helps me maintain focus when running a session to have a dedicated selection of curated sounds, and I can also more easily mix 'n' match ambiences and specific sound effects to create the perfect soundscape. If ever you decide to build an Android/iOS app, that would be *the* perfect solution, though :)
2019-06-15 15:09:25 +0000 UTCBig fan of using this site for gaming! Would be awesome to release an IOS app so I don’t need to keep the phone on so the sounds keep playing. Any idea if and when you guys plan on doing this?
