the code:
do

Rem Load sounds
load sound "snare.wav",1
load sound "kick.wav",2
load sound "hi.wav",3

Rem press key
if keystate(2)=1 then play sound 1
if keystate(2)=0 then stop sound

if keystate(3)=1 then play sound 2
if keystate(3)=0 then stop sound

if keystate(4)=1 then play sound 3
if keystate(4)=0 then stop sound

if keystate(5)=1 then end

loop

the apologize: there could be littie mistakes in code becouse ı can't exactly remember it...

the matter: when ı run program and hit a key of 1, 2, or 3 the sound starts but not stops it continue till ı stop pressing.

the question: how could ı play that sound one time per one key hit?

the note: ı want that when ı hit all keys at the same time ı must take all sound.(it's drum you know.)

thanx for help.

well, it should do what you said in the note if you are using keystates. but to get it to only play once you need to set up flags for each key, i.e. oldone=one : keystate(2)=one, then when you check for keypresses, check that one=1 and oldone=0, that way it will only play if that is so, which only last for one loop of your program while the key is held. hope that helps. btw: keep this flag principle in mind, it helps in many situations.

oh, wow. insignificantpunks.cjb.net. we like orange treble clef notes, just for future reference.

no: website for progs yet.

its because you telling it to stop playing when the key is released...
do something like:

if keystate(3)=1 and sound playing(2)=0
play sound 2
endif

that way, your sound will only play if it isn't already playing and the right key is pressed

This made alot of people very angry and it has been widely regarded as a bad idea...

before everything: everybody! thanx for help
But nightgiant ı can't exactly understand what you mean. because I'm new on programming (3 weeks) and ı don't know the code you wrote. if you write it in my code or tell me where ı can use it ı could have a chance to use it. if it works there is no doubt ı will put your name in full credit at internet publish copy. so red_eye thanx to you too. ı don't try it yet but ı'm sure it will work. ı will make you know if it is ok at this page.
