Playing Sounds with JetPlayer

SoundPool is not too bad a player, but the memory limitations can make it difficult to get the job done. An alternative when you need to play simultaneous sounds is JetPlayer. Tailored for games, JetPlayer is a very flexible tool for playing lots of sounds, and for coordinating those sounds with user actions. The sounds are defined using MIDI (short for Musical Instrument Digital Interface).

JetPlayer sounds are created using a special JETCreator tool. This tool is provided under the Android SDK tools directory, although you’ll also need to install Python in order to use it. The resulting JET file can be read into your application, and the sounds set up for playback. The whole process is somewhat involved, and beyond the scope of this book, so we'll just point you to more information in the “References” section at theend of this chapter.
