Funny Key Sound

This program, called "Funny Key Sound" doesn't have any documentation. No readme, no license, nothing. The only thing this thing has is the program itself, voice resources and the uninstaller.


Typing

While typing on a keyboard with this, it plays a sound of the pressed key. Take note that it will play only a single keystroke, not a combination of other keys, like Shift+Key or AltGr+Key.

Main screen of the program.

English keyboard layout is preferred as it does contain all keys that contains sounds.

Usage

Whenever I try to focus at window of this "Funny Key Sound" program, it kept following my mouse until I click somewhere else. Why the hell does it even involve following the mouse? Also, the only thing that interface offers is the company's website that is located, but hidden behind of a gray view.

Visible hidden link

Link is located at the bottom left.

This was supposed to be displayed in a different way due to the layout issue, most likely under Chinese language.

What about changing sounds? Not sure if interface even allows it, but it's possible to tweak it through configuration file in program's folder.

Modifying sound sources for keys

What could go wrong with setting key sounds to system sounds like chord or ding?

At least in this case, we can tweak what kind of sound we want to hear.

Company

HD2002's website is running since 1995. Did they make Funny Key Sound? No idea. With short look at website, it looks like it's some kind of hotel, or whatever else, I really don't know.

Preview of the company website

Is it a hotel? Is it a company?

I didn't bother with translating the website, but feel free to do it by yourself. As I'm not sure is this even the actual site even related with this, don't bother too much with it.

Demo

By adding few Windows sounds and mixing, I've decided to mess with this Funny Key Sound program for a while. You can check the video here.
