Thank you for making this
how do I make songs loop.
Yeah I have two different banks, one has 50 going for just over a minute and the other going for just 10 seconds, but they both correctly transition into 51 with no issues.There's also the title/intro music. I think my explanation on it (in the main post) is wrong. And that I still don't fully understand why I was met with silence once. (Which is possibly related to this issue).
I've heard this issue mentioned a couple of times now, but I'm having trouble reproducing it. Could you give more explicit details on what's happening?
By loop, do you mean loop points, where the song plays the full track then loops by skipping some specified amount of its intro from then on?
or...
By loop, do you mean they stop playing after reaching the end and then never repeat/complete silence? More specifically,
(There's no need to go digging for this info if you don't already know it offhand, but it would help.)
- Are multiple tracks, (or all tracks), not repeating?
- Are the tracks consistently not repeating? (Aka, they always just stop and never replay)
- Whats the longest you've waited after a track has finished in complete silence?
- What are the durations of the track(s) that are not repeating?
- If it's only specific tracks, then mentioning what tracks they are may help me pinpoint if it's some behavior of the game or something else.
I have a few guesses on possible reasons for silence after tracks (that would also only affect some users).
A:
Internally, Terraria has a setting that enables a small pause before repeating a track. From the looks of it, that pause can range up to 14 seconds(?), though I still need to look more into it. I can't find anything that actually enables this setting, but also have some guesses on that. (such as it being related to the experimental features option in config.json)

Sorry, I am using internet explorer
I made a wavebank using the song above, started recording, and tested, and there is no silence (if the song in itself has no silence). Terraria does crossfade the audio though, it crossfades for 1 second and 800 miliseconds or less.

This means that, if there is silence when you go to another biome or when the song ends, in most cases it will be because the song itself has silence and you will need to remove the silence with an audio editor (such as audacity). In rare cases, it could be caused because of your device or the app or something. If someone has a problem like this, it would be better if they upload their audio file to verify that the problem is not their audio file.
My tip as I said before, is that you leave 800-300 miliseconds of silence or fading. I believe it repeats better this way and I like it.

Edit: Below is proof that the song I used had no silence

Journey's End. Plays during the credit sequence.Hey, does anyone have any idea of what track no. 89 is and when it plays? It was the new track added in 1.4.1 and I legit have no idea of its name, and I can't find anything about it.
Understood, thank you!Journey's End. Plays during the credit sequence.
89. If you're only using 88 that's your issueheya !! i'm running into a problem. i can place the wav files into the tool and build the wavebank just fine, it's just that anytime i load up terraria, the music slider on the volume tab keeps forcing itself to 0%. i've run into this problem before, but that was using a completely different tool, and i don't know what i'm doing wrong with this one. another question, are there 88 songs or 89?
i see. i'm still a bit confused, though. if i try adding a 89th song, it tells me it's unknown, instead of telling me it's place in the wave bank like the others.89. If you're only using 88 that's your issue
It is easy to solve, this problem happens because the Wavebank does not have all the remaining songs.I have a bit of a problem.
So recently I made my own custom wavebank and built the xwb file, but everytime I open Terraria (With this wavebank) the music automatically goes to 0%
And when I turn up the volume, it goes back to 0 again.
I'm not sure why this happens but I just need a Perfectly not confusing solution to this.
(The wavebank size is 165mb)
