`Android` `Sound` Does anyone know a decent guide for playing sounds on Android from pre-recorded samples, with simultaneous sounds, effects like reverb, loops, tone/pitch variations, attack variations, etc? Kinda like Tone.js. Looking into documentation I’m confused between MediaPlayer, SoundPool, AudioEffects, Oboe and such.

You probably want to use Oboe

LOL... Jumping through JNI adds latency.
Is your app realtime? (Touch based)
Or is it just a processor?

Those are other alternatives...

Latency is not a problem for me, it’s more like generative music than reacting to events like MIDI keyboard or such. So like 100-200ms latency to start things is okay, but during playback it should be as precise as possible

I thought to mention `pd-for-android` library in this context as well:
