I have question how to play both at the same time, one sound is using 1,2ch for panning. and there's another sound that will play only as bgmusic. how can I add bgmusic to using 1,2 channels?

I know I could put 2 dac~ for each source. is there any better way?

only stereo speaker I use.

Copy patch and select New From Clipboard in Max.

you can use two dac~ objects or simply sent everything out the same one. don't think it makes a difference one way or the other.

I would suggest using a mono version of your bgmusic file and sending it L/R (maybe with a little touch of filtering to trim low/hi end) and a stereo version of the other file. Use Max's [pan2s] patch; I think it lives in the examples.
