Hi community,

first of all, sorry for this dumb question. I'm an Android developer and never heard of pd. However, I need PD (Android-PD) due to its low latency in an Android project.

I have to build a digital piano app and I need 88+ samples (one or two samples for every key on the piano).
I already installed the PD editor and followed some tutorials ... but I am totally overwhelmed.

My question is: Is there a simple way to play/pause wav files with pd?
Is it possible to wrap all these audio files in a zip file and just trigger the playback via a message (like "load and play sample42.wav)?

Many, many thanks

Regards from Germany
Andreas
