Working with the 16mb version fo the Sound FX Board, and I'm having issues with it recognizing the files on it. I've tried re-imaging it and using the demo tracks as well. Basically what happens when I trigger the pins is... nothing. Pin #0 triggers to a "Left/Right" test, however the others do nothing. It worked one power cycle with my own files, though pin #7 triggered the "Left/Right" test instead of the designated file. Appreciate any help that you can offer.
Thanks

Re: Sound FX board not working
What are the file names and how are you powering the board?

When I used my own files they were simply Txx.wav, the demo tracks are as they came in the zip file. I'm powering it with a 5v iPhone charger.franklin97355 wrote:What are the file names and how are you powering the board?

Any ideas? Otherwise I'll just return it for an exchange and try again.
Thanks

Re: Sound FX board not working
Can you post a screenshot of the directory?
You don't have the USB plugged in when you're trying to trigger it, do you?
Is there anything in the trash? Sometimes that confuses it.

Hey Rick. I've emptied trash, and even re-imaged it. It's not connected as a USB device when triggering, It's connected to an apple 5.0v wall adapter and a quality USB cable. The directory is simply the demo files at this point, but I've attached a screenshot for you.
It had troubles being recognized by a computer the first time I hooked it up. I tried a few times on my mbp and it didn't show up, then I connected it to my PC and it recognized it. After that, the MBP recognized it fine.
Thanks for you help!

Rick:
After posting that, I went back and did a fresh re-image again, and it seems to be working fine now! So odd, but thank you for your help!
