Suggestions on how to do a metronome app with multiple sounds

[Greg Marsh]

I'm looking for suggestions on how to do a metronome app that has one sound on odd beat (1,3 ...) another sound on even beats (2,4 ....) and another sound on half beats (.5, 1.5, 2.5 ...). Use one clock? Three clocks?

[Taifun]

I would use 1 clock and a counter variable

then in the clock.timer event:

counter = counter + 1

if counter = 1

then play sound 1

elseif counter = 2

then play sound 2

elseif counter = 3

then play sound 3

       set counter = 0
