Adafruit Audio FX Sound Board – WAV/OGG Trigger with 16MB Flash

Description

Would you like to add audio/sound effects to your next project, without an
Arduino+Shield? Or maybe you don’t even know how to use microcontrollers, you
just want to make a sound play whenever you press a button. What about
something that has to be small and portable? You are probably feeling a little
frustrated: it’s been very hard to find a simple, low cost audio effects
trigger that is easy to use and does not require any programming. This board
has 11 Triggers! Connect up to 11 buttons or switches, each one can trigger
audio files to play. Headphones, powered speakers or even wire up an
amplifiers to make loud sounds when plugged into the stereo line out. You can
create five different types of triggers which will cover a large range of
projects without any programming. What do we mean by trigger effects?
Depending on your project you may need to have audio play in different ways.
Triggers include Basic, Hold Looping, Latch loop, Play Next, and Play Random.
The sound board is designed to be simple: it does not have polyphonic ability,
can’t play MP3’s (MP3 is patented and costs $ to license, so this board uses
the similar but not-patented OGG format, there’s tons of free converters that
will turn an MP3 into OGG), isn’t reprogrammable or scriptable, and you can’t
have any other kind of trigger type. However, there’s a good chance the
project you want to make will work great. Item Specifics: Size: 22mm x 48mm x
