Newbie question - need to know where to start to generate "Supernatural" sound

Hi,

I am building a prop and I am very comfortable with the working of the mechanical functions but have no experience with sound. I am willing to learn and do tutorials but I would like some help with just knowing where to start. I want to reproduce the sound effect heard in this clip : - YouTube. Is this something I would have to play as an mp3 or could i generate the sound with the Arduino?

Many thanks :slight_smile:

I have a couple of these: MP3 Trigger - WIG-13720 - SparkFun Electronics

You can use an Arduino to trigger a number of different sounds.

Thanks for taking the time to answer everyone. :slight_smile:

I'll post a followup if I get it working.
