TracksBoard.ItemSoundFileAdd method |
|
Remarks
Adds a sound file item to the TracksBoard session's stream previously created through the TracksBoard.Create method.
Supported sound file formats are the same mentioned inside the LoadSound method.
In case the sound file should be in a RAW format, use the TracksBoard.ItemSoundFileRawAdd method.
Important note about items overlapping
Overlapping of two items on the same track is now allowed so, in case the new item should cause an overlapping and upon space availability, the new item will be automatically moved to the next track or to the previous track; if both previous and next tracks should in any case suffer an overlapping, a new track will be automatically inserted on the nearest position.
