-This module allows you play sounds from a speaker attached to the micro:bit.
+This module allows you play sounds with the micro:bit.
+
+By default sound output will be via the edge connector on pin 0 and the
+built-in speaker **V2**. You can connect a wired headphones or a speaker to
+pin 0 and GND on the edge connector to hear the sounds.
 
 The ``audio`` module can be imported as ``import audio`` or accessed via
 the ``microbit`` module as ``microbit.audio``.
 
-In order to use the audio module you will need to provide a sound source.
-
-A sound source is an iterable (sequence, like list or tuple, or a generator) of
-frames, each of 32 samples.
-The ``audio`` modules plays samples at the rate of 7812.5 samples per second,
-which means that it can reproduce frequencies up to 3.9kHz.

+      tuple of two pins, for example ``pin=(pin_speaker, pin0)`` which would
+      output sound on the built-in speaker and pin 0.
+    :param return_pin: specifies a differential edge connector pin to connect

+*****************
+
+.. py:module:: microbit.microphone
+
+This object lets you access the built-in microphone available on the

+is located on the front of the board alongside a microphone activity LED,
+which is lit when the microphone is in use.

+Sound events
+============
+The microphone can respond to a pre-defined set of sound events that are
+based on the amplitude and wavelength of the sound. 
+
+These sound events are represented by instances of the ``SoundEvent`` class,
+accessible via variables in ``microbit.SoundEvent``:
+
+- ``microbit.SoundEvent.QUIET``: Represents the transition of sound events,
+  from ``loud`` to ``quiet`` like speaking or background music.
+
+- ``microbit.SoundEvent.LOUD``: Represents the transition of sound events,
+  from ``quiet`` to ``loud`` like clapping or shouting.
+
+Functions
+=========
+
+.. py:function:: current_event()
+
+    * **return**: the name of the last recorded sound event,
+      ``SoundEvent('loud')`` or ``SoundEvent('quiet')``.

+      ``SoundEvent.QUIET``.
+    * **return**: ``true`` if sound event is the most recent since the last
+      call, otherwise ``false``. It does not clear the sound event history.
+
+.. py:function:: get_events()
+

+
+    * **event**: a sound event, such as ``SoundEvent.LOUD`` or
+      ``SoundEvent.QUIET``.
+    
+    * **value**: The threshold level in the range 0-255. For example,
+      ``set_threshold(SoundEvent.LOUD, 250)`` will only trigger if the sound is
+      very loud (>= 250).
