Mission 13: sample rate error

I have a couple of students that when they bring in their own mp3 file, the error below occurs.
ValueError: The sample’s sample rate does not match the mixer’s (soundlib.py line 208)

The line that gets flagged for one student is:
heartcound = soundmaker.get_mp3(‘sounds/heart’)

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Thanks for asking the question! AnMP3 file needs to be saved with the proper sample rate (8000Hz default in CodeX). Take a look at our YouTube video on preparing MP3 files using Audacity: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlAC-nSxgtM

Thanks Jill, I completely forgot about the Youtube channel.
