how to run multiple sounds in one sketch
Apr 10th, 2010, 9:33pm  
Hi guys,
I want to make a processing game that run a music file in the background and if the user pressed on left button play specific sound file, and if he pressed right button play another one
I used minim, but could not get what i want, below is my code:



import ddf.minim.*;
AudioPlayer player;
Minim minim;

     if (mouseButton == LEFT)
            {
                  player = minim.loadFile("chainsaw.wav",1);
                 player.play();
                 
            }
        else if (mouseButton == RIGHT)
            {
                  player = minim.loadFile("beep.wav", 2048);
                  player.close();// to close first one and then play the other
                   player.play();
             
             }


Could any one see what happend? and what about:
minim.stop();
super.stop();

Thanks

If all your code is there, you miss a setup() to load the files and a draw() to activate the mouse events...
If not, you should tell us more about the exact issue you have.

Sorry.
Below is my code, one of the sound working in a wrong way, not continuous, and the other is not working at all


Code:
import ddf.minim.*;
AudioPlayer player;
Minim minim;

void setup (){
  size (700, 500);
  minim = new Minim(this);
  

}

void draw(){
  
     if (mouseButton == LEFT) 
		{
		     player = minim.loadFile("chainsaw.wav",1);
		     player.play();
		     
		}
	  else if (mouseButton == RIGHT)
		{
			player = minim.loadFile("beep.wav", 2048); 
			player.close();// to close first one and then play the other
			 player.play();
	  
		 
		 }

 
}

As said, you should load the files in setup(), avoiding a lag in draw(). Thus you need to have two players.
Beside, you close the player right after loading the new one, so you close the new one, not the old one.
