Playing multiple Wav files at once

[planetmess]

Hi,

Is there a way to play multiple wav files at once in VB5 WITHOUT having to use DX or an ActiveX control (maybe with the winmm.dll or sndPlaySound)?

I already have the ASprite control, but I don't really want to have to require DX on the system for it to have this functionality if at all possible.

Thanks for any help you can provide!

Last time I tried to do this it worked with SndPlaySound. Here's my code:

-
sndPlaySound "C:\Test.wav", 1
-

Every program can be reduced to one instruction which doesn't work.

Sorry, that didn't work. Here's my code based on what you just told me:

sndPlaySound "c:\...\sound1.wav", 1
sndPlaySound "c:\...\sound2.wav", 1

It only plays sound2.wav. Did I miss something here or do you have any other ideas? Thanks again!

Hello!!

Yes...there is a way... you need to get the
WAVMIX32.DLL

It's alot of code to hook it up, but it allows you to play 8 sounds at once!!

I'll see if I can scrounge up the demo I got for it...

Let me know where I can send it if you want it!

Hi Sam,

I found the file. Do you have any sample code and/or an API reference or know where I can get one?

Thanks!
