This is a "program" written within a web page do aid improverts noise boys with playing sounds at a moments notice. The idea is that you can assign a mp3 file to a letter on the keyboard then pressing that letter instantly starts that song. Support for pages has been added so you can have games theems in page one, emergency tracks in page 2 sound effects in page 3 etc. The program has been written within a web page to make it easy to use on different systems/computers. All you need is firefox and flash installed with javascript enabled.
Currently an alpha/demo/proof of concept is available at http://www.see.ed.ac.uk/~s0453136/imps

The page is based on the drumkit demo found at http://www.schillmania.com/projects/soundmanager2/demo/mpc/
