A Mame machine in an antique buffet - USB probs solved (I think!)
XNIF:
i was thinking that it should make sounds from old movies when in idle state. Weird beeping stuff and strange sweeps.... :applaud:

Possibly... I've already been putting together the details of a system using an old MP3 player to play a bunch of mechanical/orchestral "bootup" sounds while the PC actually boots.
Wouldn't be a far cry to play something when in "idle, though that might get annoying after a while ;)

Snag a few motion sensors and have it play some steam noises and groaning when someone walks by.

I forgot you were going to do that. For my Rat Rod jukebox, I picked up a couple of Radio Shack 20 second recording modules (one being potentially sacrificial for testing purposes) with the thought of having it emit an engine starting sound clip when the juke is fired up. I'll either feed the output into the audio amp, or use it directly driving a TV speaker that's larger than the one that comes with the modules. I'll probably also replace the microphone with an 1/8" audio plug to program the sound(s) directly through my PC.

Just re-route the 'spray' trigger to the 'play' button on an mp3 player, or the radio shack sound chip mentioned earlier.
