Resanance vs Soundplant

Resanance is free soundboard software for applications that accept audio input. It lets users add unlimited sounds and hotkeys, send audio to multiple devices at once, and adjust local and microphone volume independently. Controls include per-sound and per-button volume, button resizing, borders, and colour changes. The feature list also includes MIDI soundboard support and text to speech. Users can sort sounds by name, search the collection, or trigger a random sound with a hotkey. The site names TeamSpeak, Discord, Skype, Curse, Zoom, Meet, Teams, and Twitch as compatible application examples, and says the software has been tested on Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, and 11. Listed platforms are Android, web, and Windows. Help links point to Discord, Reddit, and a YouTube tutorial. The privacy notice says the service may collect IP address, device and usage information, and cookies for operations, security, analytics, and reporting. It also says transmission or storage security cannot be guaranteed completely.

Soundplant is a desktop app that turns a computer keyboard into a sample trigger and playable instrument. Users can assign sound files to 88 keys by dragging and dropping them, or trigger sounds with MIDI. It supports playlists, recording, unlimited sound polyphony, and per-key effects such as volume, panning, EQ, pitch, reverb, and distortion. Soundplant runs on Windows and macOS; listed minimums are 64-bit Windows 10 or later and macOS 10.14 or later. The free version is for noncommercial use, supports 16-bit uncompressed WAV files, and includes 25 launches of paid features; after those, a reminder appears every five launches. A Single User License costs $69 as a one-time purchase and covers one user on Windows and Mac, with installation on multiple computers for that person. It lasts for the purchased version and includes 2 years of free upgrades. The standalone app works offline, has no ads or account requirement, and collects no user data.
