Keyboard Sample Trigger

Keyboard Sample Trigger is a neat application useful for mapping sounds on your keyboard buttons, letters only. If you plan to turn your keyboard into a mock DJ mixer and have fun with it, KST can help you through.

When it comes to design, Keyboard Sample Trigger doesn't really excel. Being a fairly old application, the layout hasn't been brought in line with the Windows 10 theme, at least not entirely. Still, the looks don't affect its functionality, so if you can get past the vintage architecture, then there's nothing stopping you from having a good time.

The application opens up with a green board peppered with audio effects marked by keyboard letters. Out of the 26 letter keys, 16 will be reserved for customization. Press the "read" button near each key to load supported files like WAV, AIFF, and SND.

Once the audio files are linked, one can play the tunes by pressing and holding the assigned key. If you wish to play a key without pressing it you can check the "play" box, and if you must loop it, there's an option for that as well. You can change the tune's speed, volume, and add effects like echo, resonate, resonate echo, and filter.

The same effects can be further dissected by generating a tiny window for each particular one. That can be done by clicking the effects interface and manually loading whatever instance you need.

Keyboard Sample Trigger is a real tool of the past, as today's powerful mixers and audio editors look like titans next to it. However, there are individuals who prefer to dig up such software and enjoy activities that decades ago were the peak of technology. If you are such a person, this utility will perfectly integrate into your collection.
