1. Sound DirectMusic & DirectSound

2. Sound Formats Wav Midi (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) DLS (Downloadable Sounds) DirectMusic Producer Segments Loader for new formats

3. DirectMusic vs DirectSound DirectMusic more oriented to high level playing of arrangements and compositional effects (MIDI, DLS) DirectSound has sound recording and low level buffer operations (full duplex capabilities)

4. Playing Audio Files Initialize: create instances of the loader, the performance, and initialize the performance Load a File: load the file and get an interface to that interface (segment) Play the File: download all kind of settings from the segment to the performance, and play the segment Close Down: close all the stuf

11. Assignments (Problems) 1,3, and 5: add before the includes of dmusici.h and dmusicc.h: typedef unsigned long DWORD; typedef DWORD *DWORD_PTR Assignment 2 has compilation errors that we have to solve, so do not compile yet, but browse through the code only. Look at the MMP2003 web-page tomorrow for an update on this!
