   Hi guys,
   I was wondering where the difference between the SimpleAudioEngine and the CDAudioManager is? I can't figure it out on the wiki and do not have enough time to work through the entire source code. Which of the engines is for what purpose and what are the strengths and weeknesses?

   Is there a document describing the interal architecture?

   Regards,
   Florian

   Just use the SimpleAudioEngine. It works great. It will have all the features you need... most likely... Try it out and see if you like it. It is extremely simple and easy to use... hence its name.

   If you don't have time then use SimpleAudioEngine. SimpleAudioEngine is built on top of CDAudioManager, it makes some assumptions to greatly simplify things at the cost of some flexibility.

   I am currently working on the next release of CocosDenshion, in the next release SimpleAudioEngine is very powerful but the API is largely the same. In the future the choice will simply come down to whether you prefer to refer to your sounds by a number or a file name.
