How do i play two sounds at same time?

I'm using this script to play audio in the update method:

Code (CSharp):

1. void Update(){
2. if(counter < 5)
3. counter++;
4. if(counter >= 5){
5. ASources[0].Play();
6. counter = 0;
7. }
8. }

I want the sound to play even if the previous sound is still playing, but instead it just stops the previous one to play the new one how do i fix this?

 

Use "PlayOneShot"

http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/AudioSource.PlayOneShot.html

That does not stop the audio that is already playing

 

Yes, but there's a downside to PlayOneShot. After you start a sound playing that way, you lose control over stopping it, changing the volume / pitch etc. You can only stop / change volume of ALL the one-shots at once. So for long sound effects, I find it unusable. Sometimes it's preferable to use multiple game objects all with their own Audio Source & Clip.

 

Thanks for your help, it worked.

 

It's just a quick gun shot nothing long, so this wouldn't be a problem for me, but thanks for the tip.

 

thanks for sharing

 

Thanks!

 

oneShot is doing exactly that for me. No matter what I do it stops the audio already playing even though they have different audio sources! somebody please help!

 

I am not really sure If I understand your problem, but you should try AddComponent for each clip like this:

Code (CSharp):

1.     public void PlaySound(string soundName, float volume) // VOLUME IS 0 - 1
2.     {
3.         for (int i = 0; i < clips.Length; i++)
4.         {
5.             if (clips[i].name.ToUpper() == soundName.ToUpper())
6.             {
7.                 AudioSource source_ = gameObject.AddComponent<AudioSource>();
8.                 Destroy(source_, 5);
9.                 source_.clip = clips[i];
10.                 source_.volume = volume;
11.                 source_.Play();
12.                 InstantiateSoundSphere(volume);
13.             }
14.         }
15.     }
