Mac OS Sound

The Ability to Schedule Sounds

A major new feature of Sound Manager 3.3 is the ability to schedule a sound. The mixer supports scheduling sounds, both in the past and future. If the start time is in the past, the mixer will fast forward through the source at non-interrupt time, attempting to catch up with the current time. Once there, the sounds are included into the mix. If the sound is in the future or the past, the mixer will begin mixing the source into the output stream at the specified time within a sample of accuracy.
