Is your feature request related to a problem?
Allow the user to choose what type of wave form the beep produces (sine, square, sawtooth, triangle and pulse (sort of like PWM but has a 25% duty cycle vs 50%)) and to set different pitch of tone depending on the action (scrolling vs pressing sys, mdl etc)
(applies to B/W only) Allow the beep sound to play while pressing sys, mdl etc
Describe the solution you'd like
A setting to change the waveform type the beep plays (mentioned in the top box) and allow users to set different pitch of tone depending on the action
Describe alternatives you've considered
There are not really (except modifying the code)

Is it really difficult to find a script to normalize sound files, it even looks like there's one in this project? I don't know why it's there but maxvolume.cmd looks like it normalizes wav files. There is a wav volume control but correcting the sound files seems like a better thing to do.
i would also like to add for to allow a pitch change when the jog wheel is pressed
Exhibit A: allow the users to increase the gain (in db) for .wav files (for sound packs that aren't full volume)
As @pagrey said, this is trivial to find online, as well as some examples of how to do it are still present via old scripts in this project still (and also related more to sdcard content than firmware). For example, a quick google search brought up these two results on how to use Audacity (a freely downloadable audio file editor) to both normalise audio files, and how to do batch normalisation.

Exhibit B: allow the user to choose what type of wave form the beep produces (sine, square, sawtooth, triangle and pulse)
Unless there is really a great need for this, would it not be better/simpler to simply create some wave files with those particular beep sounds/types? And use the play track SF?

I'm not sure exactly what you are asking for here? pitch change of what? when? why?

What I mean is that you are able to change the waveform type for scrolling, selecting things, etc
I'm not sure exactly what you are asking for here? pitch change of what? when? why?
What I mean is that when you are scrolling through the menu(s), it plays at a high pitch for example, when you select things (by pressing the jog wheel for example) it plays at a lower (or higher) pitch https://youtu.be/bKUNAplCQC0?si=vZi4bziVulfaDn_A&t=31 context
Also for the beep pitch, I would love for it to to have a range of + and -300hz instead of just +300hz
also would also love for an option to allow it to beep when the sys, pg left, pg right, rtn, tele and mdl
This already exists. Change Radio Settings -> Radio Setup -> Sound -> Mode to "All" (default is NoKey IIRC).

It only works for scrolling and pressing on the jog wheel, not on the sys etc buttons (at least in companion, as I don't have a physical edgetx radio)
It works on actual hardware.

oh ok, I realise that I am talking in regards to the B/W screens rather than the colour screens

are any devs able to check this out? as this hasn't got any other response for a few weeks now
EdgeTX development is a small team of volunteers giving up their own time to do this, and we are all very busy.
Someone may look at this if and when they have time; but constantly asking for it is not going to make it happen any faster, and will only serve to annoy everyone.
