The SoundBrick® Model 1400 is a solid-state digital audio recording and playback device ( Music On Hold Device) designed to inject voice messages over a separate customer-provided background music (BGM) feed. It is most widely used for in-store broadcasting to provide a store’s public address (PA) system with a continuous feed of music, interrupted with voice messages at a selected time interval, for example, every 5 minutes.

Voice messages load into the SoundBrick’s digital memory automatically from your pre-recorded cassette tape. Messages can also be recorded live in the store using the optional telephone-style handset, providing store personnel the ability to record custom messages whenever needed. The SoundBrick 1400 offers great flexibility in how and when messages are played. On-demand play is available from the SoundBrick’s keyboard. In addition, message play can be remotely activated by connecting devices such as buttons, switches, or motion sensors to the optional trigger cables.
