Sound recognition?

[Taofeld]

Let's say I have a sound file. I want my application to output text every time the sound file plays on my computer (from ANY source).

Is this do-able?

[Tiny]

Yes, that should work.

One way could be using a specific channel for that sound so when sound plays on that channel text will show.

I'm sure others will have better suggestions but this is a start.

I want the program to react if the sound plays on my computer, even if it comes from outside my application.

For example, if it hears a "new message" sound from Gmail chat.
