A pitch changing character typewriting dialogue effect?

[starysam]

Hello! I've been digging around, and I've been trying to find a way to make the "typewriter" effect (the voice beeps used in games like Phoenix Wright and Undertale, along with older games) work in a way that isn't just the exact beep repeat over and over. I have the voice/sound callback one that the forum often recommends,
https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/characte ... llbacksbut

I'd like to get more out of it though. I'd like to have it so I could use multiple randomly interchanging sound clips. Alternatively, have it so it can change pitch randomly. I feel having a small change like that will give a lot of life to the beep effect, and make it easier on the player to listen to.

Is it also possible to have the sound not suddenly end when the dialogue finishes? Is there a way to ease it out?

Thank you for taking the time to read my question, any help will be gladly appreciated!

Code: Select all

init python:
    def beepy_voice(event, interact=True, **kwargs):
        if event == "show":
         renpy.music.play("sound/guybeep.ogg", channel="beep")
      
define e = Character("Eileen", callback=beepy_voice)   

#all characters
config.character_callback = "beepy_voice"

Oh, I'm sorry, I mean I already have that code working. I'd like to get more out of it to make the beeps feel more natural. What I'd like to know is if it's possible to either 1) randomly interchange different voice beeps files for one channel or 2) randomly change the pitch of the voice beep file during the dialogue.
