if you add a listener, use it !

function loopMusic(e:Event):void
{
soundChannel.removeEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, loopMusic);
soundChannel = sound.play();
soundChannel.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, loopMusic);

}

@peter:
or you could use a FOR?

@alex It’s a good idea, but you forgot to remove the event listener before adding it again. Each playback will add another event listener. After 3 loops, it will have 6 event listeners attached to it, growing exponentially.

Hey, I used a really simple method to loop sound.

function playSound(event:Event):void
{
myChannel = mySound.play();
myChannel.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, playSound);
}

As for only looping it a certain amount of times…you could just keep duplicating this function but changing the names for however many times you want it to loop. (playSound1, playSound2, playSound3, etc…) Then just redirect each function to the next one on SOUND_COMPLETE.

@Ruth the != null is there to prevent an exception being thrown if you try to delete something that is null already
