Audio integration

I am looking for a small app that can integrate with Quick Base to automatically call out (audio) text from records when a specific action is made within the record. Any suggestions?

    Not sure about an app specifically but in the past I have seen posts about using JavaScript to play a sound when an action is done. You would need to find the right sounds for this though. 

    Are you wanting this to actually read your record and speak some text if it is found? Or are you just wanting to play sounds when specific actions are done?

      Thanks Austin, I want it to actually speak the text (Say a number from a numeric field) when an action is performed

        I think this is going to take some coding to get done. I would look into the Image On Load technique for loading some JavaScript on your pages and then investigate "Text to speech JavaScript" and see what you can find. It can be done but this is going to be something custom. I was able to find some good articles and things discussing this or showing examples but nothing related to QuickBase.

        Hopefully I am just not seeing the solution and someone else can help you out here.
