Build

git clone https://dev.xd0.de/hendrik/soundboard.git
cd soundboard
virtualenv .
source bin/activate
pip install -U platformio
platformio run -t upload && platformio device monitor -b 115200

• Convert mp3 files: sox ~/Music/input.mp3 -c 1 -r 11025 -b 16 output.wav trim 0 30
• SD card is tested with one FAT16 partion

ToDo

• Prototype
• reimplement tasks with a queue, see i2s_push_sample() from esp-idf/components/driver/i2s.c
• Keypad layout
• internal DAC?
• Add-ons?
• dynamic keypad thresholds
• wav file headers
• stack size in play task
• global variables for components
