Hi, I am trying to play a sound by using the library: minim when a variable becomes true. The problem occurs when I want to loop the sound when it is done playing so it would be nice if I could get a simple example to see how it works 🙂

Have you seen this (python). Loop function works the same in java mode.

```auto
minim = Minim(this)
minim.loop()

```

Also take a look at the bundled examples for the library: File \> Examples…

Here is AudioPlayer.loop() in the minim documentation:
