well, you can use loadSound function:

```auto
loadSound("http://www.microsoft.com/pieintheface.mp3", **true** );

```

That second parameter (true) loads the mp3 to the point where it can be played without being stopped while it’s loading.

mySound = new Sound();  
mySound.loadSound(“Track 03.mp3”, true);
