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

    I don’t have the expertise to spot if someone’s able to pull some dark wizard shit and encode a binary in audio and get it to execute it or something

    Seriously though I know enough to know I won’t spot some obscure bad practice in someone else’s code base, even without network access if someone gets onto my system some other way it could give them a route to escalate

      All true. It seems obscure and niche enough to not be a scam. There’s only a single contributor and based on his activity elsewhere it seems like it was probably just a passion project.

          I’d take that bet, but I often am relying on packages that are significantly out of date as a professional Android developer. 2 years is mild.

          There’s no obvious rootkit unless the developer put it in and if it works with your version of Pulse then I wouldn’t see what the issue could be. It’s mostly a front end access to your Pulse where you’re making and mixing digital.

          Security consciousness is good but I think you can trust this one.

          But I’m also just a stranger on the Internet ❤️
