DIY Man Cave Jukebox
« on: February 09, 2015, 11:48:03 am »
Hey everyone!  I completed my man cave about 2 years ago.  After having a jawbone jambox as the source of my music, I was tired of getting requests from my friends as to what I should play next.....go to my iphone, look for the song and then play it after every song.  I decided to build my own jukebox so that when I have parties, people can choose their own songs.  My project is complete. 
Let me know if there is anything I can improve on or if there are any questions, I'll do my best to help you out!

Interested in how you setup the LED sign. It looks like it displays the current song playing?

Hey guys.....I am running AP with this jukebox....I found it to be the most user friendly for what I wanted to accomplish.  I also have a betabrite the displays the genre, artist, and song that is currently being played through an alpha program I installed that displays all of that info.

Nice work.  What is your main control?

I am using a laptop in the back running everything. A Bluetooth mini keyboard allows me to load any additional music files I need to get on there.
