Hi and forgive my ignorance! im absolutely new to electronics but am enjoying building kits and playing with pre-fab circuits, trying to understand them. my query is about a simple 10-second voice recorder kit i came across that came pre-built :( but plays the recording only once. to play the recording, there is a contact that needs to be broken, and then the whole recording will play once. there is what i assume to be a small IC under a black blob in the middle of the circuit board. the whole thing is powered off 4 watch batteries.
im wondering if there is a simple (ish) solution to being able to make the recording loop on playback.
the only thing i could think was that i would need to somehow send a pulse or something every ten seconds to the contact.... then i thought maybe it had something to do with the capacitors.... then i looked at the blob.... then i found you :).
if anyone has any suggestions for a curious lad, i would be very appreciative....
the kit can be seen at:
Thanks in advance,
arthur.
