Music sync - Separated instruments

sebmacfly

Hi there

I ask you if we can do this...
I have a music in multiple files (all same duration), each music file is an instrument.

What i need?
I need to play all the music files synchronized.
For exemple, imagine 5 music files (drum, synth, bass, strings, voice)
and five actors.
At the start of the scene, no music is playing.
If i touch the actor 1, the drum is starting.
If i touch the actor2, the synth is starting, BUT, synchronized with the drum music... Etc......

Any way to make that work?

Thanks for your help

when the x instrument is touched.. play it when the sync counter is 0..

Wow that's a good idea....they would all have to all be sounds files or music files?

I would say sound files, because you can't play multiple music files at the same time

You could take that one step futher and do the timer based on the BPM of your files and then set it to jump in on the beat.

Practice shows that GS sometimes doesn't sync music properly. I mean I can have a scene with music and animate behavior, and some times music doesn't sync with picture as it should.

Take it and let me know if this way is good or can be optimized?
