Radio Shack used to sell something based on the ISD1520 chip. At one
time, Digi-Key carried various models of this chip. Maybe that will help
you get started.


I though about this avenue, but how can I record 12 to 20 sounds
(different animal sounds or different piano tones) and use another
chip that would allow me to look into a lookup table to get the sound
I need when I touch the first key and another sound for the next key.

Also I am looking to make a polyphonic instrument, so I want to play
multiple sounds at the same time...

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I was under the impression that you could randomly access multiple stored sounds with the device, so if my memory is correct, that should not be a problem if you simply decode the keys to access particular stored sounds.

The polyphonic part or your requirement does make it tough. I suppose you could use multiple chips, but that doesn't sound friendly. Surely you can do what you want with a computer. Any computer, but one with a soundcard makes life easy.
