I’ve got this idea in my head that I want a tofi based sound board that I can summon on a button press (and maybe fuzzy find through)
Should be fairly simple to do with the way tofi works to make the interface, but as far as I can find there’s not a quick and easy way to mix sounds in with mic input using pactl
Is there any single line solution for playing a sound over mic (like a soundboard would) anyone can think of or do I need to mess around with virtual audio devices to achieve this
Soundux comes to mind but it’s not tofi :/
I tried soundux, within 5 minutes of running it it was eating cpu and froze my pc up
Tofi can do the sound searching stuff based on MP3 files in a directory, just need a way to play a sound on top of an input device from the cli
pipewire will do the trick, might be slightly overkill tho
I think I’m using pipewire anyway, how are you thinking?
You mention pactl so I’m not sure if you’re using pipewire, but if you are there is qpwgraph or helvum you could try
I’m using pulse, had thought pipewire ran alongside it but I suppose that’s wrong. Will have a look anyway though
pulse audio and pipewire are mutually exclusive, but pipewire has a pluse module so all your programs can still work even if they dont support pipewire
