what I think I remember reading, namely, that you can sorta,
kinda, using
players, play two or more sounds "simultaneously".
Is it so? Can anyone point me in the right direction?
this from the RR documentation on 'play':
You can play multiple movies at once by starting each one of them
with the play command.
Movies cannot be played while any tool other than the Browse tool
is in use.
If you start playing an audio clip when another one is playing, the
first audio clip is stopped, and a playStopped message is sent to
the current card. You cannot play two sounds at the same time, nor
can you queue a sound while another sound is playing.
In practice, if you stick your sounds into 2 or more players (i.e.
make your sounds into movies with no visual element), then you can do
something as simple as
start player "player1"
start player "player2"
etc
and you can stop them individually as in
stop player "player2"
It seems to work using invisible players without controllers, if that
helps.
I couldn't make it work with sounds other than in 'moov' format -
they players didn't seem to want to take any notice of my wav sounds,
for example - but I may have missed some trick there.
