Ares (Aural RPG Experience System) is a software to play music and sounds during (pen & paper) role-playing games. You define which music and / or sounds to play when a certain situation occurs in an Editor program. Then, during the game, they are played by a Player program or app and you control which ones to play with a Controller program or app.
