Caveats

Section titled “Caveats”
  • As an object can only have a single active sound, this function should be called from a different prim than the one that defined a sync master, otherwise it will remove the master sound, and no sound will be available to sync-to.
  • This function is affected by the Sound Queueing property of the parent prim - this means it’s possible to queue a slave sound prior to starting a master, without having to use more than one prim as an emitter. (See example on llLoopSoundMaster).
