Content for your SoundClip is stored on a 
MicroSD card (supplied pre-
programmed). We suggest you use this 
as a template for uploading your own 
content.  
 

Should you need to use a different 

MicroSD Card we suggest you format the 

new card first to ‘FAT’ or ‘FAT32’.

 

 
To program your content you will need; 
 

1.

 

A PC or laptop with Windows OS 

2.

 

Audio Content in .mp3 format 
(support up to 99 files). 

3.

 

MicroSD Card (Supplied) 

4.

Windows OS is required to program your 
SoundClip using a PC or Laptop (Xp 

 

10). MacOS is not supported due to 
hidden files generated by the OS. 

 

The SoundClip can play up to 99 .mp3 
tracks. These are stored in the root of the  
MicroSD Card. 

You must number your 

files 001 

 099. 

The order in which your files are played 
and the buttons they are assigned to is 
dependant on their name. 

 
File 001 

 Button 1 (or PIR trigger) / 1

st

 file

File 002 

 Button 2 / 2

nd

 file played 

File 003 

 Button 3 / 3

rd

 file played (and so 

on) 
 

 

Once you have your audio files ready and 
correctly named, you simply need to load 
this all on the supplied MicroSD card.  
 
Insert the MicroSD card into supplied 
MicroSD 

 USB card reader. Plug into a 

spare USB socket on your PC and open 
the folder. 
 
Now simply drag and drop all the 
required files onto the MicroSD card. 
Insert the MicroSD card into your 
SoundClip and power on.
