## What it is
Figaro is an open-source real-time voice changer and soundboard written in Python, usable with virtual audio devices for voice chat apps like Discord and TeamSpeak. It offers both CLI and GUI interfaces plus a custom scripting language (Figaro-Script) for defining voice filters and hotkeys.

## Use cases
- change my voice in real time on discord
- play sound effects over my microphone during voice chat
- apply voice filters to my virtual microphone
- set up a soundboard for gaming voice chat
- route modified audio through a virtual audio device
- create custom voice effects with hotkeys

## When to choose
- you need real-time voice modification for voice chat apps like Discord or TeamSpeak
- you want a free open-source alternative to commercial voice changers
- you want a soundboard that works alongside voice effects
- you want scriptable, hotkey-triggered audio effects on Linux, Windows, or Mac

## When to avoid
- you need studio-quality post-production voice editing rather than live processing
- you need polished, stable production software - the project is still in alpha releases
- you need mobile or browser-based voice changing
- you want a large plugin ecosystem or extensive built-in voice presets today
