Hello great community! :wave: I have just learnt how to use a very promising and very cheap ($2.64/pce incl. shipping) MP3 module ( TF Card U Disk Mini MP3 Player ) to generate the “Alert sounds” for my projects: [image] Till now, I used a Text-to-speech module, but with good quality MP3 sounds it…

Hats off @ScruffR ! That sketch is beyond my understanding of C++ … :wink: I thought that touchscreen display was more expensive. A 4D display is around €110, I believe… Must look into it! Enjoy your MP3 music (module)!

I’ll be indebted to you forever - not just the hardware, also the fun and the puzzles it gives me to solve Many thanks again! If you need any help with your project, you know where to find me :wink: BTW: Anything in particular to explain in that sketch - there is no rocket science in it …

Glad it brings you fun @ScruffR ! Thanks for the comments // in your sketch. This helps me to follow… Unfortunately, I cannot focus on this subject at this moment… Definitely I will check out that Nextion display and I will keep you informed when I make my final “Juke-Box”! Cheers! FiDel :yum:

@FiDel Glad it is working - Nextion displays are good, although as @ScruffR mentions the display compiler/editor is a bit tricky to master. There are cheaper touch screen displays but these will use up all the GPIO. Given the Nextion display uses a serial connection and so does the MP3 player - I j…

@armor , having a shared serial port is an issue. Another alternative is to use a Digole touchscreen display in I2C or SPI mode. It dosen’t have a fancy editor but it is quite suitable for the job. A lot of display tasks can be offloaded onto the unit. :smile:

hi all I would like to make a voice recorder. I find the dfplayer very interesting. Somebody know if is it possible to recording directly the voice inside the SD card ? Thank you

Nope, this chip is only meant for MP3 playback, not for recording.

Ok thank you, it’s too bad :slight_smile:

@Sherkann , you may want to look at this module: [image] VS1053 Codec + MicroSD Breakout - MP3/WAV/MIDI/OGG Play + Record This breakout board is the ultimate companion for the VLSI VS1053B DSP codec chip. The VS1053 can decode a wide variety of audio formats such as MP3, AAC, Ogg Vorbis, W…

Hey guys, Sorry to resurrect this old topic… I’m hoping to add sound to a project using the DFPlayer Mini module and I have to say, I’m a bit puzzled. After perusing this thread, I’m not feeling too bad about myself considering that it took this team a while to iron out this device! My trouble is…
