SyntaxBomb - Indie Coders

Title mostly says it all. What I'm looking for is the ability to work with "loop points" in a .WAV file or other audio. Basically, imagine you have a music track that has an intro, and the rest of it loops; obviously if you loop the whole file, you'll just get the intro every time. Is it possible to get BlitzMax to loop back to a certain point within an audio file?

Alternative option: obviously I could take the aforementioned audio file and cut it into "intro.wav" and "loop.wav," but how would I guarantee that "loop.wav" would play seamlessly on time after "intro.wav" had finished?

I think the fmod library can set loop points, but I've never done it. 

Hi,

there is also maxmod2 https://github.com/bmx-ng/maxmod2.mod which might be able to do that.

Thanks. I've been working with Brucey's GME module via OpenAL, ran into some problems last night with the exported .VGM files from the program I'm using to compose but I thiiiiiiiink I've managed to work them out. I'll refer back to these suggestions if things go tits-up later.
