Yes - 7.7.9. I re-installed Quicktime and got it working, playing sounds simultaneously, but I'm still somewhat apprehensive since Quicktime has been discontinued for so long now.

Do you know of anything else Peter or are we pretty much resigned to Quicktime on the desktop for simultaneous sounds?

I've lo0oked into playing multiple audio files simultaneously, for Windows and Mac

system, LC 7.1.1, I get an error of "could not open that video".  Even if it 
worked I understand there are latency issues as well as Apple discontinuing Quicktime.

I've tried SOX but for some reason can't get it to simply play an audio file 
(via a shell command).  If anybody knows the right syntax for this that would 
be great.

Otherwise, does anyone know of any alternatives compatible with Livecode?  I 
hope I'm missing something here and that Livecode itself can do this.  It seems 
odd that with all the advances Livecode has made we're still struggling aith an 
age old issue of how to play sounds.

Thanks!
