Hauntbox Sound Module Instructions

  • The sound module can operate in a few modes depending on your wishes.
  • Normally, the sound module loops your "ambient.wav" sound file until it is triggered on either of the trigger screw terminals.
  • When triggered, it will play a single .wav file.
  • If you have multiple files, it will keep track and play the next numbered file on the next trigger.
  • Want to mix it up? Make a file called "random.txt" on the SD card
  • ALWAYS reset your sound module after inserting an SD card

The files

  • ambient.wav: This is the optional background ambient noise/music/etc you want looped. Want silence between triggers? delete this file.
  • trigger sounds: You can have up to 30 sounds named numerically from "0.wav" to "29.wav"
  • random.txt: If you create a file named "random.txt" and put it on the SD card whenever you trigger the module a random trigger sound will be played.

Sound File Details

  • The hauntbox sound modules requires .wav files. These can be generated from many programs including Audacity (audacity.org), iTunes (apple.com/itunes), and many other sound editing programs.
