The video for this product says that you can add "new" wake up sounds by using a USB flash drive. Is this the case? What type of file?

I'm sorry I have no idea, I just went and looked and I can't see anywhere to put in a flash drive.

I made one, just like a subfolder on a PC. It comes up, not by my design, under the Music category. I think Sandisk recommends use of "Podcasts" for audiobooks.

Even the App the Nexus ships with will work. You have to leave the computer on of course. I Prefer Wakevoice. It handles multiple mode alarms (different alarms by day of the week for example. And as the name implies, it talks once you turn off the alarm. It can deliver a message, read my daily agenda, News, etc.

Let me ask, do you have it on the charger? Because if you do, it will not play the flash drive. Just as a suggestion, return it while you can because it is very hard to navigate your music files and then mine simply got stuck on one song and wouldn't play anything else. Needless to say, I trashed it about a month after I got it.

on the new ones USB is mandatory. sound will not go through the jack only, it needs USB to light up those pretty green glows. this is not clearly indicated on the box, very dissapointing.

Not sure what review that is, but I use a flash drive plugged into the USB port all the time and have no problems turning the volume up or down. The volume works just the same as when listening to a CD or the radio tuner.

I just bought one of these a few days ago. Yes, it does have the mode where you can drag any files onto the device. So far, I have only dragged MP3 files onto it. But the instructions (and many other web forums) say it could actually be used as a simple flash drive - so I am guessing you can *store* any type of file you like. I am not sure what fule types it will recognize and actually play.

It was OK not at annoying, just the normal background buzz. But I lost the drive pretty quickly and since I use Linux instead of windows I just replaced both the drive and windows with a new blank 1Tb SSD drive from amazon ($50) - there is absolutely no sound at all! And it is much faster sans windows.

In my case, it's plug &play. I suggest you proceed via My files and tap on the usb drive. Good luck.

I have been using the unit with the usb drive to play low-volume audio non stop and never thought about the clock. Now that you asked, I checked the unit and I do not see that there is a clock.

Problem: Yes, the tape drive system produces an undesirable sound. I sent my original back to have it repaired. Sony could not correct this noise problem, but they did report to me that they tried several of the cameras on site and all of them also made the sound. I requested another new camera which they agreed to, but it does the same thing. Fix: I tried using an external mic on a stand, but the quality would pick up too much ambient noise. I recently corrected the problem by purchasing a Rodeo Shotgun Mic with an adapter shoe for the camera mount. I wish I had done this years ago. You don't realize how important good sound pickup is until you use a good quality mic. Problem: Yes, the tape drive system produces an undesirable sound. I sent my original back to have it repaired.

U can't I've had this unit for years now but they might have added it by now when u put in USB it downloads and u then go to configure what u won't each button and scroller to do I don't see a way to take the sound off but let me tell u it's worth it, it has a magnet on mouse that holds USB to it, it folds down flat to carry it even in pocket and it works perfect and to turn off u just push on top to flatten it and to turn on u just bend it I love mine and have gotten a lot of people to get one when they try mine and boy does the battery last a very long time.

NO This item can replace the built-in sound card and/or adds the usb sound device. You may have to go to control panel and select the USB audio device as the default.
