LOAD MUSIC

SYNTAX

   = LOAD MUSIC( filename )
   = LOAD MUSIC( filename AS alias )

PURPOSE

The LOAD MUSIC command allows you to load a music file from the file system of the host system and use it, as music, directly in the program. Loading occurs at compile time: there is no access to the target system's file system. If multiple uploads are made to the same file, a single buffer will still be generated.

Since it is possible to upload only one file of the same type at a time, it is necessary to be able to indicate an “alias” with which to exceed this limit. In this regard, there is also the AS syntax, which allows you to load the same file several times but with different names.

EXAMPLE

  fugue = LOAD MUSIC("fugue.imf")
  fugueAnotherCopy = LOAD MUSIC("fugue.imf" as "fugue2")
