Adafruit Audio FX Sound Board - WAV/OGG Trigger

Add audio/sound effects to your next project, without an Arduino+Shield!

Maybe you aren't that comfortable with 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

UNTIL NOW!

Don't get me wrong, we love the MP3 Music Maker shield, and Adafruits Wave Shield is a dependable classic. But you still need to get an Arduino involved. Enter the Adafruit Sound Board, the fastest way to add audio effects to a project!

Available either with a 2 x 2W stereo class D amplifier or as a headphone out version for those who don't need the amplifier built in.

No Arduino or other microcontroller required! It is completely stand-alone, just needs a 3 to 5.5VDC battery

Small - only 1.9" x 0.85"

Built in storage - yep! you don't even need an SD card, there's either 2MB or 16MB of storage on the board itself depending on which version you go for. Good for a few minutes of compressed stereo, and maybe half a minute of uncompressed stereo. Double that if you go with mono instead of stereo.

Built in Mass Storage USB - Plug any micro USB cable into the Sound Board and your Windows computer, you can drag and drop your files right on as if it were a USB key

Compressed or Uncompressed audio - Go with compressed Ogg Vorbis files for longer audio files, or uncompressed WAV files

High Quality Sound - You want 44.1KHz 16 bit stereo? Not a problem! The decoding hardware can handle any bit/sample rate and mono or stereo
