Description
"...a dimension of sight, a dimension of sound, a dimension of mind..."; words of wisdom from a master of the macabre. Regardless of how you breathed life into your creation, you can easily add the dimension of sound with the AP-8. The AP-8 audio player allows you to easily record and playback up to eight sounds totaling 60 seconds. These sounds may be recorded in any order and played back in any order. Playback may be initiated with a controller like the Prop-1, Prop-2, or Prop-SX, or with simple, normally-open switches.

The AP-8 includes a dual-level (low/high) amplifier with variable volume control. When selected to level 1, the maximum volume is that of a child's giggle, and when selected to level 2, the volume range is locked into that of a blood-curdling scream!

Note: Power supply and speaker are not included with the AP-8. We suggest our 12 VDC, 1 amp supply (see link below).

Technical Note
The ULN2803A output driver can interfere with serial communications between a prop controller (Prop-1, Prop-2, or Prop-SX) and the AP-8. EFX-TEK recommends that P7 (Prop-1) or P15 (Prop-2 and Prop-SX) is used for serial communications, and that the ULN2803A is replaced with a (7-channel) ULN2003A to prevent interference.
