PowerPlugs: SoundMaster - More Information

Getting Started

1. After I install SoundMaster, where do I find it?
Start up PowerPoint. In PowerPoint 2007, 2010 or 2013, choose "Add-Ins" from the top toolbar. Below that (in the Menu Commands section) you’ll see the name "PowerPlugs: SoundMaster". In PowerPoint 2003 it appears in the Slide Show menu.




2. How do I change the default sounds assigned by the program?
The default sounds are assigned to number 0-9. To change the default sounds, use the PowerPlugs: SoundMaster dialog to highlight a number key you wish to change the sound effect for and then “Browse” to the sound of your choosing. Select the sound effect you want to use and click Apply.

3. Can I apply sound effects to my letter keys?
Yes, sound effects can be applied to your letter keys too. In the PowerPlugs: SoundMaster dialog, just highlight the letter on the left corresponding to the key you wish to change the sound for, then “Browse” to select the sound you want to assign and click Apply. (Note: The keys with their letters grayed out cannot be assigned sound effects because they are already being used by PowerPoint for other Microsoft-defined functions).

3 How is the volume adjuster different from the volume of my computer?
Since some sound effects are louder than others, the “Volume Level Adjustment” allows you to adjust each sound effect you assign so that, during your presentation, all the sound effects can have a common, or different, decibel level. You can preview the volume by clicking on the “Play” button.

4 If I have PowerPlugs: SoundMaster installed but do not want the sounds to be active when running PowerPoint, how do I mute them?
You can mute the sound effects assigned to your computer keys by checking the “Mute Sound” button for each sound in the PowerPlugs: SoundMaster dialog, or just use your computer’s mute button to mute everything.

5 What is the location of the PowerPlugs: SoundMaster audio files; in case I want to add more audio files to it?
After installation, the default sounds folder gets created in two places for easier access:
In Vista and Windows 7:
1. C:\Users\<username>\Documents\ PowerPlugs Sound Effects
2. C:\Program Files\PowerPlugs\SoundMaster\Default Sounds
For Windows XP:
1. C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\PowerPlugs Sound Effects
2. C:\Program Files\PowerPlugs\SoundMaster\Default Sounds
