Free Slack Soundboard for Huddles

Play a drum roll, applause or your team's in-joke into a Slack huddle you join from Chrome. Free, no sign-up.

Soundboard: play sounds into your mic

Your browser will ask for microphone access when you click.

Set it up in Slack

  1. Send your sounds to the extension

    Open the Facecam soundboard, keep the starter sounds or add your own clips (up to 30 seconds each), and click Use these sounds in calls.

  2. Open Slack in Chrome

    Go to app.slack.com in Chrome rather than the Slack app, and start or join a huddle in a channel or DM. Allow the microphone when Chrome asks.

  3. Switch the huddle mic

    In the huddle, click the three dots or gear icon and open Manage video and microphone settings. Choose “Facecam Virtual Mic” as the microphone.

  4. Play a sound

    Open the Facecam popup → More → Soundboard and press a pad, or use the shortcut keys you set at chrome://extensions/shortcuts.

If it doesn't work

ProblemFix
The microphone list has no Facecam micYou're in the Slack desktop app, or the tab loaded before the extension. Open app.slack.com in Chrome and reload.
Nobody hears the clipsThe huddle is still on your real microphone. Change it in Manage video and microphone settings.
Clips sound clipped or quietCalls favour speech and can treat long music as noise. Use short, punchy clips and test with a teammate first.

Questions

Does Slack have a soundboard for huddles?

Slack's huddle help doesn't describe one. Playing clips through your microphone is what Facecam adds in Chrome.

Is it free?

Yes, with no account. The soundboard runs on your computer.

Do my teammates need Facecam?

No. They hear the clips in whatever Slack app they use, because the clips arrive as your microphone.

Can I change my voice in the huddle too?

Yes. The voice changer uses the same Facecam Virtual Mic, so you can do both at once.
