Looking for a soundboard

This may not be the right place. I am aiming to run a Skyfarer TTRPG campaign, which is based on Sunless Skies. I go all-in on my TTRPGs and DnD. Ambience, music, sound effects, mood lighting etc. I'm curious if anyone knows of an easy to use sound board with specific train sound effects or even sound effects from the Sunless games themselves. It's easy to gather the ambience and music tracks from youtube and just hit play, but what about a sound board that at the press of a button can play the audio of the engines horn, or the sound of some terrifying cosmic monster, or the sound of a rocket smashing against the hull? I am guessing I may need multiple boards for different things that I can simply tab in and out of. Any recommendations or links would be awesome.

Is there hope for another 'Sunless' style game in the future?

I'm late to the party and only just learned about the development of Mandrake. Props to Failbetter for wanting to move into something new. I'm happy for them and Mandrake looks like something my partner would fall in love with. But I just touching the zea and checking to see if anyone thinks there's any chance of another Sunless Seas/Skies style game in the future, as it's one of the most fascinating and immersive worlds I've ever had the privilege to interact with. Sorry if this has been asked before.

By 'Sunless style' I mean: Exploration of an open, gothic, victorian world using a vessel such as a ship or locomotive. Resource management and trading. Cosmic and existential horror. Text based storytelling and decision making that accounts for RPG'esk stats. That beautiful stacked 2D art style. Different factions.

Can’t find the boyfriend?

Yes, this is about the guy who doesn’t remember his own f___g boyfriend‘s face (Langley)

So I hadn’t played Sunless skies in forever, and recently went back just because of FL firmament.

ANYWAY. I vaguely remember that aside from the amenable host- this run I already finished his identity quest and he’s very right not want to go to some random backwater squatter infested hovel in Eleutheria (paraphrasing his own words not mine) - I remember there’s another guy who wants the aforementioned hovel as free real estate, but I went to the flotilla, that guy’s nowhere to be found.

Now I also have no option to pull a hot one and go *hey what’s up it’s me I’m your long lost boyfriend*. So is there no other way? Can I still finish his quest somehow?
