Hello. This is my first project in electronics. I am a complete newb, so forgive my ignorance. I am trying to learn the hardware aspect as well as the software aspect.
I am trying to make an audio device. These are the requirements:
1. Ability to transfer audio file from computer to device using usb.
2. Two buttons attached to device (button 1 and button 2)
3. When button 1 is pressed, all odd indexed files are played. When button 2 is pressed all even indexed files are played.
4. When either button is pressed three times consecutively, unit shuts off.
5. Approximately 9 Mb storage.
My question is what parts will I need to do this. Also, what software language will be required for the hardware side.
The second part of this project is to develop a Windows based application that will interact with the device.
Any suggestions or ideas will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
