And a bl**dy pain in the butt it is too!


It can be done (kinda), as long as you stick to 120 bpm, and then choose a

frame rate which can sub-divide easily into beats, eg: 12 fps. ;)


And you also have to set the sound to 'stream', so that the frame rate is

forced to stay in sync with the music. Then when you want to introduce a new

loop, break the previous loop a bar (or whatever) before the change. ie

/boom boom boom pause/ boomtit boomtit boomtit boomtit/. the pause will

cover any latency in the switchover.


And all of this will only work if you have zero interactivity - ie

presentation only.


Still flash 5 will sort all this out, won't it?
