Why not try it out? Here is a little taster for one of our
prebuilt
scenes for your to play around with.
Drag, drop, play, stop, and rename to your heart's content!
Click "Play Scene" to get started.
The final fight with the BBEG. The party's epic victory. The death of a comrade. Epic moments deserve great sound.
Instead of scouring the internet, compose a scene in seconds with our library of hundreds of sounds by brilliant composers like Alexander Nakarada and Scott Buckley.
From a haunted mansion to a fierie forest, we have created ready-to-use, epic soundscapes to cut down on your prep time.
We add more soundscapes all the time, so make sure to check often! Crafted a great scene and want to share it? Let us know at support@bardic.tools!
But what if you already have your own library of sounds?
What if you want your owlbears to sound just so?
No problem! Just create an Empty Scene, and upload your own sound!
Those were only the features we have videos for! Check out our:
Bardic Tools is developed by one person (Hi, my name is Borja, nice to meet you!), in the time I can squeeze after a very busy day job.
While my dream would be to do Bardic Tools full time, I'm not quite there yet. For now, I can only support a small, paying userbase, until I can afford to cut the hours at my day job.
That said! I understand that not everybody will be in a position to pay for Bardic Tools. If you're really interested, but really can't afford it, send me an email, at borja@bardic.tools! I'm sure we can work something out, especially if you're willing to give me feedback to make it better!
Bardic Tools is meant to be a Desktop application primarily. We test it routinely in Chrome and Firefox, and have reasonable confidence that it works on Safari Desktop.
It is a web application, so it should work on mobile, but we make no guarantees on the matter. Specifically, we know a lot of the app's functionality is not present on iOS browsers.
Yes! Well, mostly.
Most sounds in Bardic Tools are licensed under the Bardic Tools License, CC BY 4.0, or other licenses friendly to content creators. Just make sure you give proper attribution to the author of each sound.
You can find the attribution for each sound next to its title in the Library, or in soundcards.
Here is a list of licenses that explicitly don't allow you to reproduce the songs in public settings such as a YouTube video or a Twitch stream:
We have special tools to help you with licensing. Get in touch at support@bardic.tools, and we'll be happy to help!
Yes! You have a couple of options.
We recommend using Kenku FM, the best soltution for Discord Audio. It integrates with Discord and allows you to stream audio from a Bardic Tools tab.
Alternatively, you can screen share the browser tab where you have Bardic Tools open, which will broadcast the sound to your players.
Here's a video explaining how to do it (we're working on a more detailed guide of our own).
No problem! If you try out Bardic Tools and don't like it, email us at support@bardic.tools and we'll issue a full refund for the last period you bought, no questions asked.
Well, that's not entirely true. We reserve the right to ask you how we could improve it to suit your needs better, but we'll refund you either way!
As soon as I'm happy to call it the best TTRPG soundboard out there.
For that, I need to implement many features that users in the Discord server have requested, as well as making The Library to be much bigger.
If you'd like to see exactly what I'm working on, you can always check The Roadmap. If you'd like to suggest a feature, you can do so anonymously here.
Unfortunately, I don't recommend it.
While you can technically open Bardic Tools on any device with a web browser, the phone experience is not polished yet.
If you're interested in using Bardic Tools on your phone, please let me know on our Discord or by sending an email to support@bardic.tools.
These are Early Access prices! As Bardic Tools is still in development, these prices are subject to change.
