By creating component sections that are downloaded once then reused to construct a dynamic full soundtrack, audio file sizes are significantly reduced producing broadband sound on a 56K budget. Typically, songs are arranged into recurring musical sections. By shuffling the order and repetitions of each chunk, you can easily tailor your soundtrack to the timing and visuals of your rich media production. Chunks reduce audio files sizes by reusing the component phrases of a song. These phrases are only downloaded once then reused to form an entire soundtrack.
Chunks offer an easy route to truly compelling sound.
What chunks do not do is allow you to individually manipulate the instruments that make up the song. This is where layers come in. A song is composed of various instruments playing together. DoReMedia separates these instruments into their own audio layers allowing for individual volume control. Manipulating the volume of these layers gives the developer complete control over the dynamics of the soundtrack as a whole.
