Title: Who needs ringtones when you can get this!
Post by: rubedugans on July 28, 2012, 09:17:04 PM
Who needs the ringtones when you have the Soundboard app? Wait I am the only one that has this? Just press the button and the sound  plays! No wait for someone to call you so that you can hear the Frisco whistle, or for the serene sounds of the waterfall. Man it is great being a techie! I created a lesson for my class on how to create an interactive application (all but publish it) using pretty basic software, and this is my example for them. Now I can get my SDC fix whenever I need it! Let me know what you think! I'd love to talk to SDC to have them actually allow this to be used by people other than myself!

It plays:
Cave drips/ sounds
Church bell ringing
Flooded mine song
FITH song
Train whistle
Blacksmith Anvil/ hammering
Horse Bridge
Waterfall
Saloon piano

I totally want that app Rube! I searched the App Store for a few minutes before I read your entire post, and learned it was something that you had created. It looks great! ;D

Great idea!  There is a Disney fan site that has created soundboards very much like this as freeware for Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean and the Enchanted Tiki Room. 

It's just genius!

@ Betamike, That's where I got the idea for my classroom assignment! He has some amazing work, design, typography and much more (including soundboards). After my week long trip to Disneyland/ Sea World/ Universal etc, I came back with a bit of a Cali-Disney bug and found a few fan sites that answered my questions/ gave copycat recipes, showed fan work etc. I found a bunch of artwork that was average, and a few that were amazing. His blog is very nice, and I am envious of the opportunities he has had with his work. I know it sounds like I have a bit of a man crush, or a disney fever...don't worry folks, I have not defected to the DW/DL group... you can take a boy out of the city, but you can't take the city out of the boy! Just check my pic of me in front of the castle...notice anything??

Indeed it is a badge! I felt that WDL needed a deputy to keep the frontier under control.

And the photo was taken in July. I know it pulls away the curtain on who I am, but o-well!

How fun! I would love all the sounds, but I know for myself the train whistle and the phantom horse bridge would be the most played.

That's pretty awesome Rubes!  I love being subversive at Disney by doing the same thing (see avatar photo).  Nice work!

A Silver Dollar City badge at Walt Disney World? That's like drinking a Pepsi at a Coka-Cola factory! :P

Actually, that's pretty cool! Showing the love for the humble Silver Dollar City. :)
