Creating a Sound Board

This example script shows how to send a sound file to a voice channel. A few shortcuts are taken here, for more advanced techniques for connecting to a voice channel see the tutorial Join or Switch to the Voice Channel of the User Issuing a Command .

#include <dpp/dpp.h>

#include <sstream>
int main() {
/* Load a sound file called Robot.pcm into memory.
* The bot expects PCM format, which are raw sound data,
* 2 channel stereo, 16 bit signed 48000Hz.
*
* You can use audacity to export these from WAV or MP3 etc.
*
* If you wanted to send a more complicated format, you could
* use a separate library to decode that audio to PCM. For
* example purposes, a raw PCM will suffice. This PCM file can
* be found within the bot's github repo.
