When I press the Play button on the toolbar AudioMulch makes sound, but when I press the Stop button, the sound keeps on going. Is this a bug?
The short answer is no, it’s not a bug. The transport controls on the toolbar (Play, Stop, Return to Start) control the AudioMulch clock. The clock is used by clock dependant contraptions such as the Drums and LoopPlayer, it’s also used by Automation. Pressing the Stop button will stop the clock, and hence stop clock dependant contraptions from making sound. However, many contraptions in AudioMulch are free running — they don’t depend on the clock to make sound. Examples of free running contraptions include TestGen, 10Harmonics and SoundIn. Pressing stop won’t stop these contraptions from making sound. You might reasonably ask: then why did they start making sound when I pressed Play? The answer is that pressing Play not only starts the clock, but also activates real-time audio if it’s inactive. You can activate and deactivate real-time audio independently of the clock by using the Activate Audio (speaker button) on the toolbar. The stop button never stops real-time audio because stop
