The Tsunami Super WAV Trigger is an advanced audio playback module designed for professional sound installations, interactive art exhibits, and any application requiring high-quality audio output and multiple polyphonic tracks. It is capable of playing up to 14 stereo or mono tracks simultaneously from a microSD card, providing a versatile solution for complex audio scenarios.
Pin Number | Name | Description |
---|---|---|
1 | GND | Ground connection |
2 | VIN | Supply voltage (6-12V DC) |
3 | RX | Serial receive (for UART communication) |
4 | TX | Serial transmit (for UART communication) |
5-18 | TRIG1-TRIG14 | Trigger inputs for tracks |
19 | BUSY | Output pin that goes low when a track is playing |
20 | RESET | Resets the module when pulled low |
Q: Can I play MP3 files with the Tsunami Super WAV Trigger? A: No, the module only supports WAV file playback.
Q: How do I control the volume of individual tracks? A: Volume control can be done programmatically via serial commands or by adjusting the levels in the audio files themselves.
Q: Is there a limit to the size of the microSD card I can use? A: The module supports microSD cards up to 32GB in size.
Below is an example of how to trigger a track on the Tsunami Super WAV Trigger using an Arduino UNO.
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
SoftwareSerial tsunamiSerial(2, 3); // RX, TX
void setup() {
// Start serial communication with Tsunami at 57600 baud
tsunamiSerial.begin(57600);
Serial.begin(57600);
delay(500); // Wait for Tsunami to power up
}
void playTrack(uint8_t track) {
// Command format for playing a track: 't' + track number (1-14)
tsunamiSerial.write('t');
tsunamiSerial.write(track);
}
void loop() {
// Example: Play track number 1
playTrack(1);
delay(5000); // Wait 5 seconds before playing the next track
// Example: Play track number 2
playTrack(2);
delay(5000); // Wait 5 seconds
}
Remember to keep the audio file names on the microSD card in the format T001.WAV, T002.WAV, etc., where the number corresponds to the track number in the playTrack
function.
Note: The above code uses a software serial port for communication with the Tsunami Super WAV Trigger. Ensure that the chosen pins do not conflict with other uses in your project.
