Using the Soundboard Editor

Use the simple but powerful editor to change the fade type, crop, trim or normalize the audio in any audio slot. The Soundboard editor is completely lossless, so no changes are made to your original file, only the audio loaded in the audio slot. At any time you can go back into the editor and undo any changes you've made with no loss of quality.

Learn MIDI - use this button to assign the open audio file to a MIDI key. Once it's been assigned, you can trigger that slot using your MIDI device in addition to the hot key or mouse click.
NOTE: Soundboard can only use Note on/Note off input from a MIDI device. If a MIDI trigger does not send a Note on/Note off signal, or can't be edited to send a Note on/Note off signal, then it cannot be used to trigger audio in Soundboard.
