Wave Shield - no sound

Post by Phil_UK »

Hi, I wonder if anyone can help. I've built the waveshield (v1.1) and connected it to an Arduino Uno. I've used Audacity to create a batch of 22k, 16 bit mono Wav files and have copied them to my SD card. Then I've tried running the dap_hc example - it all appears to work and looking at the serial monitor my first track appears to be playing and I've a set of dots in the serial monitor as if it's 'playing', but no sound /music other than a few crackles through the earphones when I turn up the volume.

Any ideas to help? I'm a fairly novice solderer but I was fairly happy with my soldering, I have photos of the front and back of the board if that would help - I will upload them if required.

Thanks.

Have you tried running the example code yet? What are the file names you are using?

Yes I've tried running the dap_hc example to play the tracks - I initially put approx 25 tracks on the SD card, now I've just got one track on the card to simplify things. My wav file name is denver.wav.
