I take it you have had a look at the GameDev.net articles section?
Try rephrasing your question. What kind of tutorial are you after?

If you''re using DirectX, you may want to look into DirectMusic and DirectSound. Otherwise, be more specific about your question.

ok, sorry guys.
I use OPENGL, Im workin on a shootemup and use Playsound for e.g. gunshots, painscreams and ammopickup. Playsound can play a wav but the only option is ASYNC or SYNC. I need a similar function in which I can choose the volume and maybe from which speaker the sound comes or whatever. playsound can only play one sound at a time, so when you fire and pick up ammo at the same time it can only play one. It may be a pretty stupid question but up to now I have never used any sound in my game.
thanx in advance

Ahh, I see
To adjust balance (which speaker), volume, etc, as well as play multipul sounds and use hardware''s advanced sound functions, you will need to use DirectMusic or DirectSound.
Seeing you are using OpenGL, you may want to look into OpenAL, which is probably going to be alot eaiser for you than DS and DM.
Hope this answers your question
I don''t believe it! Just Great!
