Surround Speaker Controller
Archiver
Posts: 46,084
I'm interested in designing a simple mute/solo controller for 5.1
surround sound systems using a Stamp. This would use 6 momentary
switches plus a mute/solo "mode" toggle switch for input control. The
Stamp would then need to control six 10-amp relays to switch the
speaker outputs on and off. Six LED's would be used to indicate
speaker on/off selection. Yes, this is a pro-audio mixing
application, as consumers would never need to do such a thing. Any
suggestions as to I/O devices or code. I'm guessing something like a
ULN2003 would take care of the relay drive, and certainly a series
resistor would take care of the LED. Do I need any sort of de-bounce
circuitry or code to use standard momentary switches.
I did a few things with a BASIC Stamp about 10 years ago when they
first came out, so I'm sure this will work. Any sugestions to get me
ramped up on this app???
Thanks for your help...
