I was checking the Wave Player module but I can't find where (or how) can I "reset" the counter in the player so I can "rewind" the music playing there.

I already have a play/pause button made some modification to the example that Mo show me here mixing it with the example of ChrisHooker about how to change a label here

I want to add a "stop" button (that already have) but don't know where to go back in the wave player...

Cheers!

Pd: Related question. It's the waveplayer the best way to reproduce a file?, considering CPU load and stuff...

To make start/stop, connect a switch to the retrigger input of the counter:

Thanks again Mo!

I will try to add that in my schematic.

About the second question, Is the wave player the best way to play audio? because it seems to charge a lot of cpu sometimes

The stock wave player can change pitch, make precise looping and pause/stop functions. If you don't need all functions it can be optimized to not include some of those functions.

If you only need a very basic wave player, it can be done very simple using the Wave File primitive:

Thanks MO, I will take a look to your osm,

Cheers!

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
