/* RF24 Audio Library TMRh20 2014
 
This sketch is demonstrates the use of private channels (node-to-node) in a multi-radio group.
 
Requirements:
3 or more Arduinos (Uno,Nano,Mega, etc supported)
3 or more NRF24LO1 Radio Modules
1 or more input devices (microphone, ipod, etc)
2 or more output devices (speaker, amplifier, etc)
 
Setup:
1. Change the CE,CS pins below to match your chosen pins (I use 7,8 on 328 boards, and 48,49 on Mega boards)
2. Set the radio identifier number. This will identify each radio in the radio group.
2. Upload this sketch to three or more devices
3. Send commands via the serial monitor to control the devices
 
Default Pin Selections:
Speaker: pins 9,10 on UNO, Nano,  pins 11,12 on Mega 2560
Input/Microphone: Analog pin A0 on all boards
 
Note: Should support up to 10 radios currently. This has not been fully tested.
Note: Pin selections can be overridden by modifying the userConfig.h file included with the library
Note: If two or more radios share the same identifier, they will receive the same single-pipe transmissinos, but will be unable
to establish node-to-node communication between each other.
