## What is TALETUNER?

TALETUNER offers you an easy way to create a soundscape for your next roleplaying session, storytelling evening at a campfire or a telling a good nights story...in just 3 steps.


Our "tunes" consist of the following three steps: 

- Ambience (piece of music in the background)
- Sounds (looped sound files)
- Effects (sound files with a trigger)


Our recommendation, the 1-3-9 rule has proven itself useful in our sessions, so it's 1 ambience, 3 sounds and 9 effects. If you add more sounds or effects to your tune, it can get a bit chaotic ;)


Since you can create as many tunes as you like, it makes sense to divide a roleplaying campaign or planned story evening into scenes or chapters. You can name each tune individually and later reopen and customize them in your library.


The hand-picked sounds in TALETUNER - Dark Future are divided into handy categories, making it easier to choose when creating a tune.


Want to create a tune for a Cyberdive? Then choose an ambience from "In the Megacity". In the following two steps for sounds and effects, the same category is selected first.


You can also add the tunes you’ve created to campaigns and then sort them anytime in your library using drag & drop.



TALETUNER will add new sounds in regular intervals. If you have urgent wishes or suggestions, we will be happy to receive them at support@zwanzigseiten.de. The most frequent requests will be added to our list!


You can test the app in advance with a small pre-selection for free and without registration. If you like TALETUNER, you have the option to make a one-time purchase.

By the way, we do not store any data about our customers in our apps. 

We don't use any analytics or tracking services and we don't annoy anyone with advertisements - promise.


Megacities and cyberspace are not for you? You want to save dragons and defeat princesses? You are more of an investigator following a trail of the great old ones in Arkham? 

No problem! We have more TALETUNER versions for the following settings:

- Fantasy (e.g. D&D or Pathfinder)
- Gothic Horror (e.g. Call of Cthulhu, Ravenloft or Witch Hunter)


As we said, if you have any wishes, suggestions or constructive criticism, feel free to write us at support@zwanzigseiten.de. To all trolls: We have hoarded enough sunlight, so behave ;)

### 4/5 — Incredible for Cyberpunk RED BUT….

*2025-01-28*

Amazing sounds, great loops. Awesome UI. Overall exactly what I was looking for. But the app crashes every time I am at the final page for saving my sounds. Thus, making it difficult to save and reuse soundscapes. Please fix! Supported immediately.

### 3/5 — Add background mode

*2024-11-15*

On the next update, can you please add a background switch that can mix with other apps without stopping the sounds to keep the app open? Not only for this app but also others? It’s useful to me when writing that helps me get in the mood of a story I’m working on

### 5/5 — Preem!

*2024-01-25*

This is the perfect app for me, and just in time too! The 3 dollars to unlock all features is totally worth it with all the variance you can get to fit any scene you may need and the yo is incredible! Thanks for making this😎

### 3/5 — Unless you are willing to pay, don’t get this.

*2023-09-07*

The app is good, but unless you are willing to pay for the full version, I wouldn’t recommend getting it. There’s only one free option, which sounds cool, but if you want more variety, I wouldn’t get this.

### 5/5 — Exceptional

*2023-01-14*

This is a must have tool for any GM looking to add sound and ambience to their games of Cyberpunk Red or any other futuristic TTRPG. Being able to load specific environments and queue sounds all with a simple intuitive layout is phenomenal. Worth the 3 dollars to unlock the full version. Keep up the good work and I can’t wait for more additions to this super useful tool.
