+MONOSTABLE 555 - MOMENTARY SWITCH<br>
+<br>
+The "Loudness Kill Switch" reacts to the loudness of music emmited from a speaker. The mechanical construction consists of an aluminium ball applied to a loudspeaker, moving towards a copper rod when music is played. The circuit will be closed if the aluminium ball gets in contact with the copper rod.
+That happening a LED will light up and the loudspeaker (connected to an amplifier again connected to a solid state relay)  will turn off for ca. 30 seconds. This time passed the loudspeaker will turn on as the LED will turn off again.
-:<tt>TASK:
+To improve:
--> Build a "Super Conceptual Switch"
+The circuit will only be closed if there is enough base in the music.
--> The "Loudness Kill Switch" is a Switch that reacts to the Loudness
-of Music emmited from the Speaker...
-A mechanical construction consisting of a conductive ball, and a metal rod.
-the ball is able to swing freely on a wire. once the volume has reached
-a certain peak, the ball touches the rod and therefor closes the circuit,
-acting as a momentary switch. blablblasdf83595749067345
