This might be asking for too much, but all of the sound designers on Roblox would love you for all eternity if you added a way to add post-processing effects…

still this is an awesome plugin, great work :clap:

Thanks for the feature request. I’m working on such a system and it will be rolled out soon.

The idea is good, execution not so much, allow me to explain:

First off, your plugin does not feature intuitive, clean UI; it is not difficult to find items or functons, however it is visually discouraging: there is no “main menu” or home page for this plugin; items are directly placed in the grid without any sort of pre-categorization.

image
The menu pop-up button is small and incorrectly placed, such that a misclick could lead to users accidentally closing the plugin window; the issue is persistent despite undocking/resizing the window.

image
Categorization is incorrectly described; each category should provide a wider spectrum per subject. (i.e. Weapons, Vehicles, etc. whereas you currently provide Gun Fire, Gun Reload, Bullet Hit, etc.)

image
Audio length filtering should be displayed as a stepped 2-way slider instead of a text input box, providing control for minimum and maximum audio length.
Having audio length filtering be controlled using text-input can be messy sometimes as there isn’t a standarized format for time display. (0:00, 00:00, 0, etc.)
If your system already supports multiple time formats you should add a slider as a faster alternative to text input, while keeping text input as an optional method for filtering.

As a personal tip, I advise you to have consistent updates; if you plan on adding a feature, make sure to release it to its fullest rather than partially (for example the post-processing feature), this allows for a cleaner roadmap and overall smoother workflow.

Thank you for the feedback. I completely understand all of these issues.

I am working on improving the grid system to allow for pre-categorization.

Categorization was originally built off the few sounds that were available in the plugin, but as the number of sounds increase, the categories will be changed to show “Weapons”, “Vehicles”, etc.

A slider system was considered during the main development of the plugin. At this time, the filtering system only supports text input, but a 2-way slider is in the works.

The post-processing feature will probably not be released in the next update, as much work remains. Planning to release 5-6 different effects when finished.

In the next update, a few more sounds will also be released.

Thanks for the feedback! At this time, Roblox does not allow local sound pausing, but as soon as this feature is added, I will add it to RoSound.

I noticed the pause button for sound preview doesn’t work. Is there something I’m doing wrong?
