Hi, this is hopefully a straightforward thing… I’m a beginner, so I’m unclear about how to set up variables. I prefer to play sounds from my library using linkage, so can anyone please tell me how to pass an array of sounds into the SoundChannel, so that I can stop them all at once?

It’s for a ‘toggle voiceover’ button, so perhaps better to use Sound transform to mute the Sound Array. Any ideas?

This is what I have so far. (Page1 etc is my linkage sound name)

```auto
var GlobalVoice:Array = ["Page1", "Page2", "Page3"];

var Globalchannel:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();

GlobalVoice = Globalchannel;

var transformVoice:SoundTransform=new SoundTransform();

transformVoice.volume=0;

Globalchannel.soundTransform=transformVoice;

```

The problem is Line 3, which I’m just guessing at, in order to pass a Sound Array into the SoundChannel, but it doesn’t work…

Thanks!
