I am working on a rhythm project where I am coding something where I have several buttons on a screen that need to be pressesed at any time and have that action recorded in time so i can loop it and have the rhythm played back. Is this possible to do in actionscript and if so how is it possible?

The idea behind this is that people can click boxes to make a sound and create rhythm patterns out of it and when they are happy with the music they made, then they can watch visuals created by that music. So I would need to have the selections not only play back in time as they were entered, but also have it be able to trigger events.

Thanks in advance.
