    Hi there,
    I'm looking for an app or computer software (app would be prefered) where I can simply do this:

    There must be 4 buttons:
    If you press button 1: one specific song is played
    If you press button 2: another specific song is played
    If you press button 3: another specific song is played
    If you press button 4: one random song is played from a library (but that song can't be any of the songs used for button 1-3.

    Why I need this is because I want to be able in a sports arena to use this, for example the goal horn is button 1, a penalty song is button 2, and on button 4 it simply plays a normal random song for an intermission.

    Any ideas on how I could do that, or what program I could use?

    How much do you know about programming? If you are using windows you could create your own application with Microsoft Visual Basic 2010 .NET. Creating your own application would be the best method that way you could keep customizing it to your needs.

    There are lots of resources online regarding creating vb.net and the free compiler visual basic express will do much more then your needs.

    Good luck

    Hmm. Try Virtual DJ. It was designed for DJs and live parties. But, I believe you can customize it to have it do those kind of things. You can set buttons to specifically play custom sounds.

    Thanks for the great hints guys!
    It also came to my mind to simply do it as an HTML file, with all the files located in a simple folder.

    Any ideas what I could use to make it also iphone/smartphone compatible?
