Adding sound to 'Double Barrel Cannon'

I'm trying to use the final code from the Double Barrel Air Cannon post, topic #1536, and add a sound file (gunshot) using an AP8.  I can't seem to get the shot to synchronize with the valve firing.  I have a 1/2 second gunshot in segment 5. and have tried to change the valve open timing to 500 but the AP8 seems too slow.  I've added a 1 to 5 FOR/NEXT loop but only get 1 gunshot sound for 5 valve openings.  Any suggestions?

Going to be really tough, especially if using serial comms (which takes about 25ms to send the command).

I suggest you record a long segment of the shots, timed like your prop, and just start that at the beginning of your cycle.  You can stop the audio short with the "X" command.
