i may be wrong, but it seems that you can only have 1 music plaing at a time, using the play music function, if im wrong someone correct me,


it would be very benificial to have this function, 2 or more music audio channels there are so many reasons why, i cant even list them all

You can only play one music at a time. Maybe try the Playsound?

ya i know that , imagine if you could play 3 or more music files at a time?

you could have 1 song with 3 variations

example,

have 1 song split into 3 tracks track 1, violin track 2 drums, track 3 other

play all 3 channels at one time, but have channel 2 and 3 off or volume at zero

out of battle, you hear a violin plaing : play song channel 1

going into battle while channel 1 is still plaing, play channel 2,

this will add dynamic audio to your game, a good example of this is in super mario world, when you get on and off yoshi

when you are on him drums play with the song, when you get off him the song plays without the drums

this is just 1 potential feature that could be possible with multiple audio channels ( for play music )

It would be cool to be able to adjust some effects with music/sound. Maybe get/set the position in the audio file, as well as the total length, change speed and pitch and stuff.

i just want to re introduce this topic, and another benifit of it

having 2 "play music" channels is good because,

some games might not need to have more then 2 sounds plaing at once, so you could save ALOT of MB space by using other forms of sound, while still having your music intact
