Mozzi brings your Arduino to life by allowing it to produce much more complex and interesting growls, sweeps and chorusing atmospherics. These sounds can be quickly and easily constructed from familiar synthesis units like oscillators, delays, filters and envelopes. One of the strong points of my AudioTools library is, that Read more…
Quite some time ago, I demonstrated how you can send Audio to your mobile phone using the VBAN protocol. Recently I have added support for receiving data to your microcontroller as well. With this you can use this protocol to build some cool two way communictations applications (e.g. walkie-talkie). Arduino Read more…
So far I have always preferred to send audio using the networking functionality of the micro-controllers. This is usually fast and reliable. Many examples can be found in my communications examples folder using different protocols. Using Wires But we can also send audio signals over a physical wire. I prefer Read more…
Snapcast is a multiroom client-server audio player, where all clients are time synchronized with the server to play perfectly synced audio. It’s not a standalone player, but an extension that turns your existing audio player into a Sonos-like multiroom solution. This week I have spent some time to work a Read more…
Recently a user was trying to use http to post some audio to be played on a microcontroller with the help of my Audio Tools. This project contains some simple http server implementation, but only for playing audio that is generated by a microcontroller on a webbrowser. However, quite some Read more…
For quite some time I was looking for an easy way to send some audio to some mobile devices w/o having to write my own mobile application. That’s when I found VBAN. They have some free app (and some payed ones that are reasonably priced) and publish their protocol. So Read more…
Today I got very upset by a discussion where a user replaced the original question with a misleading conclusion that mixing an A2DP sink with a sine signal was not possible! Unfortunately he also ignored some helpful comments by some other users. So in order to avoid any confusion I Read more…
My AudioTools project is supporting quite a few audio encoders and decoders. They are critical to reduce the storage or transmission volume of audio. Though I support the encoding of AAC and MP3, I can’t really recommend this: it requires a lot of memory and processing time. For an introduction Read more…
Quite some time ago, I tried to use the functionality of the Arduino Audio Tools to download a file from an URL and store it on a SD card, but I was running into some problems. I finally found the time to investigate the issue and I have the functionality Read more…
This blog continues the topic Low Latency Streaming of Audio Data and we have a closer look at ESP-NOW. This is a protocol developed by Espressif, which enables multiple devices to communicate with one another without using Wi-Fi. I was missing a proper implementation that is based on Arduino Streams, Read more…
