DESCRIPTION
Sound Byte is a computerized cart machine for the Macintosh. It is very similar to the so-called cart machines used at radio stations in the past. Each recording - a jingle, advertisement, etc, was on a cartidge, which could be quickly selected and played.

Sound Byte brings the cart machine to the computer age. You can assign select up to 75 recordings per rack, and assign each to a button. Clicking on a button plays that recording. Multiple recordings can be played at the same time.

Three versions are available:

  • Sound Byte Lite supports a single rack of carts, or up to 75 recordings total. The registration fee is only $39.
  • Sound Byte supports five racks of carts, or up to 375 recordings total. The registration fee is only $79.
  • Sound Byte Pro supports fifty racks of carts, or up to 3750 recordings total. The registration fee is only $149.
WHAT'S NEW
Version 3.5:
  • The lock volume sliders menu option now also locks the progress indicator as well.
  • Added an option for a local preferences file in the application’s folder.
  • Added a better explaination of an expired registration code.
  • Added option to drag a playlist into a cart button.
  • Added the ability to vertically alphabetize carts in a rack.
  • Copy and Paste can be used in a Timed Playlist to duplicate entries.
  • Added an option to reset all Timed Playlist start times based off of the current or a specified time.

PROFESSOR_B  When this works, it is great. When it doesn't...well, it gets weird.

I have this running on a Macbook for a podcast that I do. The software sometimes works well, but other times, the sounds break apart, get choppy, or clip a microsecond from the front of the sound. I often have to quit and reopen the program to get it to work correctly.

The developer has tried to be helpful, but we cannot resolve this problem. The software is almost unusable for me, and the developer is at a loss.  (Version 3.2)
