Dear Mr. Kibernetik,

Just wanted to congratulate you on creating a fantastic app! 😀 I've been looking something like this everywhere that would give me tactile feedback for every key pressed. I've been using a similar app until now called "Noisy Typer" which creates awesome vintage typewriter sounds in real time, no lag at all. Here's the link:

Regarding Loud Typer, I left you a positive review on the Mac app store. I was the reviewer who asked you if you could add a morse code sound. Just wanted to elaborate on that. My idea was that the morse code sound could be a simple vintage beep, no need for the actual dots and dashes that are different for each letter, as I imagine it would slow down the typing feedback experience. Right now I have your typing sound set to "Register", as it's the closest sound I can get to morse code. Here's a vintage morse code sound I'd like to suggest:

Having all keys mapped to that sound would be fantastic!

The letter "E" is a single dot in Morse Code. So you could map all the keys to a vintage "E" (single dot) sound. Perhaps have the Backspace key with the "O" morse sound (3 dashes), Return key might be "S" sound (3 dots). Or all the keys could be single dot "E" sounds. Just my 2 cents.

Finally, the ideal would be to enable users of your program to add their own custom sounds.

Wishing you all the best and thanks again for creating this fantastic program! 😀👍👍👍

Best

Nick

Yes, existing "Morse code" sound theme is exactly the Morse code alphabet as it is.

I think it is a good idea to allow user to create customised sound setup.
