[Sutton, Mike]

I used the "World begins... " method, and used audacity to chop the sound file to size. I was making a moon landing animation

Hello,

I am sure there are more correct ways of accomplishing this, but I have found the following two ways work well. One is to place the control statement Do together at the top; inser the music and then place the methods in a Do in order. That enables all of the methods to run as you wish, but have the music in the background. Another way is to add an event in which either "When world begins..." or "When a key is pressed...".

Hope this helps.

Greetings!

Sorry guys, I'm learning this stuff on the fly.  My students are working on a music video project for their culminating activity.

How do I get imported music to play from the beginning of the program, continuously as the code continues to execute?  I have a student that has programmed the ground to "say" the sound, but the next line of code won't execute until the imported song is finished.  a do while doesn't seem to do the trick.  we would like the lines of code following the ground saying the sound to execute without having to wait for the sound to transpire.

 Thanks in advance for any help.

Kenneth
