SoundContent
Drop in a voice-over or a beat, play it, run it through effects, or turn the words into timed captions.
A SoundContent points at a sound file (WAV, OGG, MP3, FLAC and more); the file stays on disk. Play, Stop, Pause and Resume it from a script, or tick Playing in Properties; Volume, PlaybackSpeed, Looped and TimePosition shape it. Wired into audio nodes, it plays through them. Dropped on a video it becomes a sound clip. Right-click it and choose Transcribe to make Captions. Anything but WAV needs ffmpeg.
