Thanks Scott,
I've not used audiopathconfig and apparently I don't need to... (tbh I don't
know what it's used for)
I have two audiopaths; 1 dry and another with a big dirty reverb! Of course
I've specified the reverb path on all seg.play (s), and of course I put in
the rest...
Set myAudiopath = audiopath1.create()
I set the default audiopath to dryAudiopath.aud in DMDemo and I now use CC
messages to fade out this path (not setVolume)
I have download all content checked - it seems to be enough.
I hope I'm not doing anything wrong here - could my script b eating memory
or something like that?
Paul
