Play multiple sounds at the same time

Is there any way to play multiple sounds at the same time? I’m not making a game but wouldn’t games be required to do this? Say a background track plus sound effects?

In my case I just want to play multiple mp3s at the same time. [import]uid: 8158 topic_id: 2034 reply_id: 302034[/import]

Multiple sounds are not supported at this time (it’s on our future feature list). You can play multiple sounds using media.playEvenSound, they are limited to short (less than 3 second) sounds and the volume is not controllable.

I just want to add my voice to requesting the ability to play multiple audio streams simultaneously as a feature.
I have an app design which is intended to play separate audio tracks, each in a separate .caf file simultaneously with level support (like a sound mixer) and If I could use Corona to develop the app, it will save a LOT of time and effort.

Thanks.

Yikes! That’s a huge feature gap. This is a must! [import]uid: 20384 topic_id: 2034 reply_id: 24378[/import]

The old audio APIs have been replaced by new openAL APIs that support playing multiple sounds and many more features. Check out http://developer.anscamobile.com/reference/audio [import]uid: 7559 topic_id: 2034 reply_id: 24439[/import]
