Hello,
I am super new to electronics and very eager to learn! I have a few questions, but first here is what I hope to accomplish. I'm making a little robot, and I'm hoping to have a few audio files play when HD is turned on. It will go through and play the files back to back, and then loop when done. From my research so far, I will need speakers as well as an attachment to help the Arduino sound better, but am lost after this. So here goes my questions.
1. What other pieces do I need to ensure my sound is good, and not break my board?
2. Are there any tutorials that mimic what I am looking for?
3. Will the sound start right away once power is supplied if no switch is involved?
Bonus question! I'm hoping to have a motor work another piece and "sync" it up. For example, when audio 1 plays, motor code 1 runs, etc. How can I do this?
Thank you so much for your time and consideration!

Re: How to get mp3 files to play on Arduino!
1. It depends on which Arduino. If you have one of the ARM M0 of M4-based boards, it is possible to to native MP3. https://learn.adafruit.com/native-mp3-d ... on-arduino
Otherwise, you can use a Music Maker shield: https://www.adafruit.com/product/1788
2. I dont know of any that do exactly what you are looking for. But there are lots of MP3 related tutorials you can borrow from: https://learn.adafruit.com/search?q=mp3
3. Yes, you can program it to play files at power-up.
