Hello mates!

I'm creating a game using cocos2d, and using Deshion for sound, but it seems a too rudimentary library.

What sound library do you use in your games?

Thanks a lot for suggestions.
Ricardo.

OpenAL, it's pretty easy to use straight up. I think we have < 100 lines of OpenAL code in our entire project to make it do exactly what we wanted it to do.

Do you know any useful tutorial or even library on the top?
Thanks for help.

I use Finch ( simple OpenAL wrapper ) for short/interface sounds.

I use AVAudioPlayer for playing long/background/compressed audio.

I created a freely available sound manager for my tutorials and book. This uses OpenAL for shorter game sounds and AVAudioPlayer for music tracks etc.

Thanks, it seems a nice library.

Does fadeMusicVolumeFrom have an equvialent method for sounds?

Should I use shutdownSoundManager in my Terminate app delegate? (I think nowadays never is called).

Thanks a lot.

I use OpenALManager, formerly ObjectAL. 2-3 lines of code to get your background music or effects playing the way you want them, depending on whether you like to preload, load on first use or stream.
