Choose your own
You can adapt existing audio files from your computer for use in this project, or audio clips can be downloaded from sites like http://soundbible.com/ or https://freesound.org/.
You will need to convert the files to the appropriate format for microcontroller use. See this guide on how to convert audio files.
Your audio files must be named 01.wav, 02.wav, etc. so all filenames are two digits.
