Thread: Help with picoBoo FI-104

Tweet

I am done with building a Creature crate and I am tring to hook up the controller. I am wanting to know how the unit fires each output. Is it just random due to the sound file or timed? Does it fire output #1 while it is triggered and playing the 1st ambient sound and then switch to 2nd output and scare mode with audio?
If anyone knows about these, please educate me becuase the manual is very limited.

Hi,
I've got a couple 105 modules and you start by recording your sound....Ambient and scare....It's been awhile since I programmed with it but you basically press the button 1 and 2 while the scare sound is playing back while recording....You can keep doing it over til you get it right and then set it in play mode....It will play back your two channels depending on when you hit the 2 buttons during the scare.....There aren't much to them and are incredibly easy to program....The best way to figure it out is to just mess with it!....Hope this helps....ZR

Thanks, ZombieRaider for the info.

It will fire exactly as you program it too, herer is what the manual says. I have a few of these and never had a minutes problem with them.

All programming of outputs and sounds are done directly on the picoBoo. To program the outputs, just press the record button and act out the scene with the two output buttons. Easily synchronize the outputs with sound, when you hit record your scare sound will begin playing, then simply synchronize the outputs with the sound manually as you hear it.

To record sound on the picoBoo, connect the desired audio device to the picoBoo's line-in. The picoBoo will recognize an audio device is connected and will automatically record to the sound chip when you press record. The picoBoos can record two audio tracks, one for background music and one for the scare.
