Title: music track playback with light scene
Post by: Keith Broughton on January 28, 2021, 09:25:28 AM

I need a solution to allow the client to play back a specific audio track when they select a lighting scene.
There is a Chauvet Pro Net x2 that controls the lights and 4 latching "big buttons" for the client to choose a scene.
So, depending on which button is hit, I need to play a specific track to go with that scene.
The audio player could be controlled by the dry contact or DMX from the Chauvet.
While this is not a "do-it-as-cheap-as-possible" situation, I would like to keep the cost reasonable.

I did find some options from "Topic: sound clip played from trigger"

While I do some more online research does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks

I remember seeing such a product on Thomann made by Maintronic and looking at their site they still have such a product, takes SD cards and is available in DMX and RS485 variants with 7 GPIO's, DIN rail mounted.
