A brief overview of how to create sound effects, how to record them, and even how you can automate them.
Next time you host a party, let your guests could choose what kind of entrance to make! The Make-an-Entrance Party Doorbell is a wireless doorbell with four buttons. Your guests can select between themes you choose, say, royal fanfare, heavy metal, Star Wars, or cheering sports fans. When they push the appropriate button, a regular doorbell sound is heard inside. But when the door is opened, a sound effect is played to match their selection. At the core of the project is a Raspberry Pi equipped with the EnOcean Sensor Kit.
