Quick Start

This guide will help you quickly master KeyTone's basic operations and core features.

Launching and Quitting

  • After installation (see Installation), KeyTone will reside in both the taskbar and system tray.
  • On the main interface, select your preferred keytone album (requires users to create or import their own) and adjust the volume for optimal typing feedback.
  • Closing the window won't terminate the app. To fully quit, use the tray icon's context menu (right-click the tray icon).

Core Configuration

Volume Control

  • Use the main interface's volume slider for real-time adjustments. The mute button (left of the slider) toggles global silence (synchronized with tray menu options).
  • You can further adjust the slider's maximum attenuation range of the main page slider in the settings page for finer volume control and lower volume levels.
  • The settings page also provides an additional volume control slider, allowing the volume to exceed 100% (use cautiously to prevent audio clipping).

Other Settings

  • Set the software language.
  • Configure whether to hide the window on startup.
  • Enable or disable auto-start on boot (subject to the operating system’s auto-start settings and restrictions).

Next Steps

Enjoy your enhanced typing experience!
