We have an Internet Radio Station and have been on the air for over two years. We air a "Live Call In Program" on Wednesday nights and yesterday was the first night we used Sound Byte and it worked without a hitch... SUPER Product! - Wes

Thanks to Black Cat Systems, the best part of the cart idea is back again and in a digital audio format that makes it a must for anyone in theater, radio or recording. It's awesome! All the sounds you need, right at your fingertips. - Joey Stuckey, award-winning guitarist, songwriter, singer, composer, producer, radio personality, teacher, and sound engineer.

LOVE the app, worth EVERY penny and would have easily paid more for it. Kills any other live radio app we've used. Even the bloated several hundred dollar apps... Love it love it love it. Thanks again! - JMack

This program is quicker and more user friendly than any hardware based unit out there. I use this program EVERYDAY while mixing network television and could not work without it. Thank you for a great product. - Randy P.

I like this Sound Byte thing a lot! It's pretty nice stuff. I can play any files no matter where they are, even if they are on a different hard drive. Nice! - Fred C.
