Perfect! Exactly what I was hoping for
Thanks for making this! The price was right, too.
I have a row of vending machines in my tiny gritty/urban/cyberpunk sim, and I realized they just didn't seem realistic without that recognizable constant "hum." Finally I found this. I dragged the contents of the Atmo orb into a nearby, static object (a Kiniri recycle bin), and it just works! The audio loop is seamless, and the scripted menu is high-quality and has a lot of nice options -- not just volume control, but also controlling the directionality of sound (I should not be able to hear the vending machines from inside my apartment, for instance!).
I love this and I wish I could purchase additional scripts to use with my own multi-sound-clip audio loops! The importance of sound design is neglected by a lot of builders in Second Life, which is a real shame, since one sound effect can make the difference between a static vignette and a living, breathing world!
