🤖 WARNING! WARNING! B9 INTERACTIVE 2.0 HAS ARRIVED! 🤖

Attention, all B9 Robot Builders!

I'm excited to announce the official release of B9 Interactive Version 2.0, a major update to the Windows-based sound and voice control software designed for our favorite bubble-headed booby!

What started as a way to make operating the B9 Robot's sounds easier has continued to evolve into a more flexible, powerful, and user-friendly system. Thanks to the feedback and suggestions from fellow builders, Version 2.0 introduces several exciting improvements.

🚀 What's New in Version 2.0?

🎵 NEW! Batch Sound Importing

One of the most requested features is finally here!

Instead of importing sound files one at a time, you can now select and import multiple MP3 and WAV files in a single operation.

B9 Interactive automatically converts filenames into readable sound descriptions and presents a preview window where you can review, rename, or exclude individual sounds before importing them.

Adding 20, 30, or even 50 robot sounds just became a whole lot easier!

🤖 Improved Automatic Sound Mode

Automatic Mode has received some important upgrades to make your robot's conversations and sound effects feel more natural.

• Sounds are allowed to finish playing before the next countdown begins.
• Choose between sequential and random playback.
• Random playback can avoid repeating sounds until the selection has been played through.
• Adjustable playback intervals let you control how frequently your robot speaks.

Whether your B9 is entertaining visitors at a convention or standing guard in your robot room, Automatic Mode makes it easier to keep him talking without constant attention.

🔊 NEW! Next Sound Control

Want to skip ahead during Automatic Mode? The new NEXT SOUND control gives you more flexibility without having to stop and restart the entire process.

↕️ Improved Sound Organization

Organizing your robot's sound library is now easier with Move Up and Move Down controls, allowing you to arrange sounds in your preferred playback order.

🖥️ Interface Improvements

Version 2.0 also includes refinements to the program's layout, including a resizable sound list area, making it easier to work with larger sound collections.

⚙️ Better Settings and Playback Control

Your Automatic Mode preferences and playback settings are saved, reducing the need to readjust everything each time you launch the software.

⭐ Built With Robot Builders in Mind

B9 Interactive is designed to help bring our robots to life, whether they're appearing at conventions, entertaining friends and family, or simply patrolling the Jupiter 2!

My goal has always been to make the software useful, approachable, and enjoyable for fellow builders.

And Version 2.0 is another big step in that direction.

DANGER! DANGER, WILL ROBINSON!

Your robot has just become a little more interactive!
