Audioclip issue

Post by jmk_phd » Wed Oct 20, 2021 2:05 am

Apparently it is not possible in LiveCode to play more than one audioclip at a time.

I've been developing a few music apps, so this is a tremendous limitation: My (freeware) clients want me to sound two or more audioclips simultaneously, which is not possible in LiveCode. For now, I've been recording triads (three-note chords) as separate audioclips.

Is there possibly some LiveCode extension that employs an open-source software synth to sound several notes simultaneously? (Especially important in my case is that it be able to handle microtuning.)

Have a look at Paul McClernan's GitHub repositories, for his MIDI utilities: https://github.com/PaulMcClernan?tab=repositories/
Also see his post here: viewtopic.php?f=10&t=28900&p=201549&hilit=midi#p201549

Hopefully this may be helpful...

Hi Jeff,

of course it is! :-)

But not with audioclips, use a player object for your sound(s).
Then you can have a smuch sound at the same time as you like!


Best
