It's Now Easier Than Ever to Import Audio to Makecode!

First of all, all credit of this goes to @UnsignedArduino I forked his repo and made some changes so that you can import audio to makecode very easily. Just fork this repo: HomeAssistantTycoon/Audio-to-MakeCode-Arcade: Converts audio to MakeCode Arcade code! and replace the file in the audio folder with your own file. The file must be a .wav and it must be mono not stereo. Then the action should run and wait a minute or two and check the outputs folder. Copy and paste that into makecode and boom! Hereā€™s the forum post where I started from: Help with custom audio clipsā€¦again - Arcade / Help - Microsoft MakeCode Again, all @UnsignedArduino I just made some changes.

Wondering why my version is quieter than @UnsignedArduino ā€˜s Bob omb battlefield sounds like this in my version:

While it sounds like this in @UnsignedArduino

@Richard or @UnsignedArduino Do you have any idea why? Also how can I reduce background noise? Thanks!

All I did was make it easier for people to convert audio. You used to have to do it locally, but with my changes it can be done online. Additionally, Iā€™ve made it so that you donā€™t have to downmix .wav files to mono, this will now do it automatically. Also, Iā€™ve just finished the GitHub io page, now making it so that you donā€™t even need a GitHub account to transfer your audio. Heres the link: https://homeassistanttycoon.github.io/Audio-to-MakeCode-Arcade/

Oh sorry, its not an extension, itā€™s a tool you can utilize on the github pages link or by forking the repo and using github actions (if you have a github account)

The process has become much simpler than before. Now all you have to do is drag and drop your desired file into the box in this link: MakeCode Arcade WAV Converter. It will then produce the code which you can copy and paste into makecode and it should work. Iā€™m working on the Github Pages right now to fix an issue, so just check in a few days and it should be working again.

Yeahā€¦ this thing has been pretty problematic. There are better projects on this site that do this nowā€¦ this one is pretty dead tho. :frowning:

Everyone Iā€™ve just gotten this repositoryā€™s GitHub pages conversion tool working again! You can find the repository here: https://github.com/TycoonCoder/Audio-to-MakeCode-Arcade All instructions can be found there. Any questions you have, ask them in this thread or create an issue. (Iā€™ll respond to issues faster). Please star the repo if it helped you! Also, hereā€™s a demonstration song using the tool. Keep in mind that since this is a minute long file it sounds a little quirky, but youā€™ll understand if you listen.

It works now! Just use the GitHub pages link in the repo.
