Transform your next role-playing or tabletop gaming session. Syrinscape is a revolutionary sound design app created in Australia by tabletop role-playing aficionados. The app conjures every aural landscape imaginable, from ethereal forests or dank, vermin-filled dungeons to the spooky depths of the underworld.
Unlike other soundboard-style apps, Syrinscape uses adaptable libraries of sound files – SoundSets – to improvise soundscapes, allowing users a great degree of control over what they are hearing, while requiring almost no interaction while the app runs.
The Syrinscape Fantasy Player app is optimized for iPad, giving users the ability to playback Syrinscape SoundSets with a beautiful, easy-to-use interface. All the fantasy SoundSets you buy from the Syrinscape Store are available across all your devices, so you can pick up whichever device is to hand and immerse yourself in whatever sound world you desire.
Plug this into some big speakers at your next game and blow your player's minds!

Great Tool but needs iPhone X tweak
EHeard
The app is great and is amazing for creating ambiance during gameplay. However my biggest frustration is that when I am running it on my iPhone X or iPad Pro, the volume control is right where the home screen swipe bar is. I can mitigate this a little by increasing the view size, but it’s still right there and because the sounds close when you leave the app, creates irritating moments of the sounds stopping. Please update to add a full screen setting that will disable the home screen bar and the app will be perfect. :)
Good tool, but lacks background audio support

I liked this app, but stopped using it after a couple of games I DM. The reason is I use Lion’s Den Fight Club with Apple TV to project characters to a TV, and want to stream the audio as well. This app doesn’t support background audio (that I can tell) so the audio stops if it’s not the front most app. I now use Table Top audio via Safari because it works the way I need.
Great App!

Very simply, this is the best soundboard out there for Fantasy RPGs. In many cases you can click one button and not have to look at it again for the whole scene unless something major happens. Many of the latest Pathfinder and D&D adventures have pre-set soundsets so that this is very easy to use. My players love the sounds and it really does take our game to the next level.
No sound!

The sound is not working! And there’s no register button on the app. Only reason I wanted to check it out was cause I heard about it on the glass cannon podcast. I might as well just use YouTube for sounds.
Great tool, extremely overpriced

This tool would be great if all of the sound-sets weren’t exorbitantly expensive. For most of them you will be paying $5 for roughly a dozen audio clips that may or may not already be contained in already owned sound-sets, most of which, you probably won’t use. If the SoundSets were $1, or even $2, I would happily give this app five stars. As it is, it’s highway robbery and just not worth the money that you would need to spend to have a decent selection of audio clips.
Great idea, terrible execution

The sound effects that Syrinscape offers are great. However, the app that delivers them is deeply flawed. Major issues include: - Tiny font and buttons, positioned near the edge of the screen, making them hard to reliably activate. - No background playback or integration with system wide audio controls. Audio playback is the app’s primary function. How can the developers not have enabled standard playback controls? - No support for split screen or multitasking. If you want to use your device for Syrinscape, that’s the only thing you can do with it. Change to another app, and audio playback stops. Turn your screen off, audio stops. I signed up for a subscription with them to access various sound packs, but will be cancelling after the first month due to poor implementation.
Could be incredible

With all the apps and tools available to a DM it’s wild to me that you would insist on the sound effects and music only playing while the app is open. I have spells to look up, I have hp to track and notes to find. I can’t use this very well done app and be a useful DM at the same time. If it could continue to play in the background it would really change everything in my game. Other than that, you guys desperately need to update for iPhone X. Please consider allowing the sounds to play in the background.
Can you hear me?
new bt fan
I really am not a fan of bad reviews, but I downloaded the app, registered online, restarted my phone...nothing can get this sound working! Heard about this on Critical Role and their podcasts, but sadly this promotion is flop!
No sound

Well I downloaded this app to my iPad but once I load it up, log in and download the sound set, I hear nothing. No matter what click I don’t get a sound
