Sounds great...
What about a tone shifter as well? So we could shift the pitch then
offset the tone shifter so the sound sounds correct but at a different
pitch.
Oh and I been messing with the new Panther stuff (very nice). I find the
3DMixer uses a lot of CPU when u attach 5 audio files, the sounds seem
to slow down.. then they just overload..
Mind u my testing and messing around is a mess.. so I bet its me code :)
Anyone get a level meter working? Or a nice FFT?..
Tops! Keep the java version flowing dudes!
