Is it possible to ask Visual Studio to play a sound after compiling?

When the project is huge, the cost time for compiling can be several hours? Is it possible to ask Visual Studio to play some sound to alert me the compiling is done.

There is in fact a hidden windows setting just for that. Here's an old link, and here's a current (windows 7) screenshot:

enter image description here

You get there via Control panel/Sound / sounds tab, and scroll down to 'Microsoft Visual Studio'.

Use a Post Build event. It will run after the build step. Attach it to the final executable's project.

Add a custom build step that calls some command line audio player thingy.
