I had the same problem that one of the other people had. It (the music)turnes on and off when my baby cries and it's not voice activated. I just bought it today and I guess I will be returning it tomorrow. Maybe the next one will work right. I will be exchanging for the same product. The rest of the features are great! As long as you don't have the same problem I've had - this is the perfect monitor.I'm giving this a second review! I returned the first monitor for another one and it too didn't work. I gave up on it and I'll be doing some research on getting another. I did notice more static on the second monitor. This I guess is just a poor product. Usually I am very faitful to Fisher Price. I guess they can't always have the best.
