Specifically, using a single source for audio. Roll20 has a music/sound player :jukebox" thing and has âdecentâ tracks you can switch between. Iâd love the Online Player integrated into that section, where I can have 2 tabs open⌠Roll20 and the Syrinscape Mixer and my players would only need the Roll20 tab, no extra software downloads or accounts (even free) to create.
I have it running through Discord right now, but Discord really compresses the bitrate and makes the sound very tinny.
My players seem to prefer Discord Voice chat over Roll20âs, so this set up is going to work for now. (I think)
I know I can boost the bitrate, and that will help against the tinniness. Weâll see if everyoneâs bandwidth can handle it. (I have one player that lives in rurally and another in Brasil. Both of their connections are a bit weak.)
Iâm just a âcanât I just have everything I need/want in one place?â kind of person.
The reason I didnât use Syrinscape until I won the subscription is that is was more trouble than it was worth (or so I thought before I actually got to play with the full sound sets.) I play mostly modern games and, when I first made my account and tried the free stuff, it really felt like it was more geared toward Fantasy play. Between that and the difficulty of getting everyone to have the audio, I gave up.
Iâm glad Iâm back though and I will almost definitely re-up when my year expires. Iâm enjoying the modern and cyberpunk sound sets. And tonight I discovered uploading your own samples! (I donât have any made yet, but Iâm excited.)
