Class Sound

java.lang.Object
  framework.Sound

public class Sound
extends Object

A Sound object is created for each audio file used. You can play the sound multiple times by calling start() more than once. If you require greater control over playback, you can obtain a Clip object from getClip().

Clip objects returned from this class may be closed at any time they are inactive, but they will be automatically reopened at the original position when start or loop is called. You can also reopen them by calling open(), which will reset the position to the start of the clip.

To read MP3 or Ogg Vorbis audio files, get the appropriate plugins from this page.
