Blerp vs Go Button

Blerp provides soundboards and an audio effects library for sharing sound bites, noises, and audio memes in messaging, voice chats, and streams. Streamers can browse more than one million user-created sounds, upload audio, or create sounds from Twitch and YouTube clips. Creator tools include sound alerts, text-to-speech, video alerts, overlays, channel points, and subathon timers. Blerp lists integrations with Twitch, Discord, YouTube, TikTok, Kick, and other streaming platforms. It advertises more than 500 text-to-speech voices and moderation through an approval queue and word censorship. The browser extension supports Chrome, Edge, and Brave; Blerp HUD is listed for Mac, Windows 10 or 11, and Linux beta. The free TTS plan costs nothing and includes the voice library, basic voice filters, moderation queue, and word censorship. Blerp Unlimited offers a seven-day trial, with plans at $4.99 a month billed every two years, $5.99 a month billed annually, or $10.99 a month billed monthly. Blerp says only sounds marked reviewed by its team are guaranteed to be DMCA safe; some Twitch features require Affiliate status.

Go Button is an iOS app for creating and running sound cue playlists for live performances on iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch. It can play several sounds at once, advance through a cue list with the GO button, or trigger ad-lib effects from Hit buttons. Cues may auto-stop, fade, loop, or duck, with separate volume, pan, speed, and pitch controls. Playback accepts iOS-compatible remotes, Bluetooth keyboards and accessories, MIDI input, OSC commands, and hotkeys. Shows can move through AirDrop or the iOS Files app, arrive from iCloud Drive or Dropbox, and be imported into QLab. Supported audio includes WAV, AIFF, AIFC, M4A, AAC, MP3, MOV, CAF, 3GP, MPEG4 audio, and FLAC; copy-protected files are excluded. It requires iOS 15 or later. The free version costs nothing for one saved playlist; the $99.99, paid once Pro License allows unlimited playlists.
