My sound loop is not seamless.

JamesNoble

For my game, I need an engine loop for a car. My engine sound goes for about 1 second, and I checked the 'loop' box in the 'play sound' attribute, however, when the sound loops, there is a very minute gap in between the loop. It's a tiny gap, but definitely enough to notice and be annoying. The sound file is .ogg. Is there a way that I can fix this issue?

Thank you.

Hi James; it sounds like (sounds like, get it!) it's actually in the sound file. Open up the file in an audio editor, delete the small gap and it should loop better. If you haven't got a sound editor, Audacity is free, Amadeus Pro is about $40 I think, but there are loads more audio editors to choose from out there. Hope that helps you. :-)

have you tried it on a real device?

I have noticed that looping isn't seamless in the editor on the mac, but is on a phone or ipod.

but yes...check the starts and ends of your sound file for gaps first.
