Features

Everything a soundboard should do.
None of the junk.

No sign-up, no ads, no premium tier. Just fast sounds, wherever you talk.

Straight into your mic

Sounds go out through a virtual microphone, and your real voice is mixed in, so you don't have to switch inputs.

Global hotkeys

Any sound on any key combo. Hotkeys work in-game and while Blurt is minimized to the tray. You also get Replay last, Random sound and Stop all.

In-game overlay

Press Ctrl+Alt+B to see your top sounds over the game, then play them with 1–9. The game stays in focus.

Auto push-to-talk NEW

Blurt holds your push-to-talk key or mouse button while a sound plays, so your squad actually hears it.

Instant clips NEW

Something hilarious just happened? Ctrl+Alt+C saves the last 30 seconds of what you heard as a sound.

Stream Deck control NEW

Play, randomize, replay, stop or clip from Stream Deck, Touch Portal or Streamer.bot with one private link.

Text to speech NEW

Type a line and a voice says it into your mic. Each line is saved as a sound, so you can replay it or bind it to a key.

Import anything

Drag in MP3, WAV, OGG, FLAC, M4A or AIFF files, or paste a YouTube, TikTok or Instagram link and trim the part you want.

Sounds that sound right

Loudness normalization, per-sound volume, trimming and fades. Your voice can dip automatically while a sound plays.

For gamers

Built for the middle of a match.

You can't alt-tab in a clutch, so you don't have to.

  • The overlay never steals focus. Your game stays fullscreen, with no taskbar popping up, and it closes on its own.
  • Pinned sounds come first on keys 1–9 and 0, in the order you choose.
  • Nothing gets injected into the game. Blurt draws its own window, the way anti-cheat expects.
  • Push-to-talk handled. Blurt presses your PTT key or mouse button while the sound plays.
For streamers & creators

Your stream's sound desk.

Wire Blurt into the tools you already use.

  • Stream Deck, Touch Portal and Streamer.bot can play any sound by name with a private link that only works on your PC.
  • Clip that. Save the last 5–120 seconds as a sound. It's kept in memory only until you clip.
  • Mic ducking turns your voice down while a sound plays, so the bit lands.
  • Text to speech for chat-read moments and quick replies.
Text to speech

Say it without saying it.

Type a line, choose a voice, and it plays into your mic. It stays in your library for the next time.

Setup

Up and running in a minute.

Apps can't create microphones on their own, so Blurt uses a free virtual audio cable. If your PC doesn't have one, Blurt fetches it for you.

Install Blurt

Run the installer. Your sounds and settings survive every update.

Press "Set up my microphone"

Blurt finds or installs VB-CABLE from its official site, tests it with a real signal, fixes the level and mixes in your mic.

Pick it in Discord

Choose CABLE Output as your input device. That's it — start blurting.

FAQ

Good questions.

Is Blurt really free?

Yes. There's no paid tier, account, ads or tracking. Blurt is MIT licensed. It only goes online when you ask it to: downloading a clip from a link, or fetching the virtual cable.

Is Blurt open source?

Yes. The full source code, issue tracker and every release are on GitHub. Each installer is built by GitHub Actions from the tagged source, and its SHA-256 checksum is published with the release.

Windows warns me when I run the installer. Is it safe?

Blurt isn't code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen shows "Windows protected your PC". Choose More info → Run anyway. You can check that your download is the official build by comparing its SHA-256 checksum with the one on this page: —. In PowerShell, run Get-FileHash Blurt-Setup.exe.

Do I need VB-CABLE?

You need a virtual audio cable, because that's how any soundboard reaches your microphone. If you don't have one, press Set up my microphone and Blurt downloads VB-CABLE from vb-audio.com, checks VB-Audio's signature and opens its installer. VB-CABLE is free donationware by VB-Audio. Its licence doesn't allow bundling it inside Blurt's installer, which is why it's a separate step.

Can it get me banned in Valorant, CS2 or other games?

Blurt doesn't inject into, read or modify any game. The overlay is a normal always-on-top window, and sounds go through your microphone like your voice does. Auto push-to-talk sends a simulated key press. Some anti-cheat systems ignore simulated keys, so if it doesn't work in a game, hold your push-to-talk key yourself.

The overlay doesn't show over my game.

Some games in true exclusive fullscreen don't allow any window on top. Set the game's display mode to Windowed Fullscreen or Borderless, which looks the same. Number keys still play sounds while the overlay is open.

Does instant clips record me all the time?

Only if you turn it on, and only into memory. Blurt keeps the last few seconds of what your speakers or headset play and writes nothing to disk until you press the clip shortcut. Turning it off clears the buffer.

Is there a Mac version?

Not yet. The macOS build hasn't been tested end to end, so we won't offer it until it has.

What happens to my sounds if I update or uninstall?

Updates keep everything. Uninstalling keeps your library too, unless you tick "Delete the application data". You can also back up your library to a .zip from Settings → Storage.

Make some noise.
