3.  Add MP3 capabilities to Java Sound with SPI
Author:Dan Becker
URL:http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-11-2000/jw-1103-mp3.html?
Summary: The Service Provider Interface (SPI), a new feature in Java 2 1.3, allows developers to transparently add new functions to the JVM. That allows older Java programs, even Java 1.02 programs, to take advantage of the newly added functions with no changes and no recompiling. For instance, Java Sound uses the SPI at runtime to provide sound mixers, file readers and writers, and format conversion utilities to a Java sound program. Indeed, more functions can be added to Java Sound to take advantage of new file formats. In this article, Dan Becker introduces the SPI by way of a real-world example: MP3 sound files.

7.  Improve your programs with practical audio
Author:Dan Becker
URL:http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-06-1998/jw-06-sound.html?
Summary: Used judiciously, audio can be a useful addition to even the most practical Java apps. In this article, author Dan Becker details three ways to produce sound in Java applications and applets: Using the Applet class with the play method; using the AudioClip class with the play, loop, and stop methods; and using the AudioStream class with the play, loop, stop, and restart methods. You'll learn the advantages and disadvantages of each of these three approaches. Plus: Find out how to package sounds in a JAR file so users can replace the sounds in your program with their own.

9.  Java Media Framework Player API
Author:Bill Day
URL:http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-04-1997/jw-04-jmf.html?
Summary: The Java Media Player API, a portion of the Java Media Framework (JMF), lets Java programmers easily embed audio and video within applets and applications. Both static and streaming multimedia are supported from any valid URL. JMF players may be controlled by other players, providing for synchronous playback of multiple audio and video samples. This article gives an overview of the Java Media Framework and the JMF Player API. The fundamental classes and methods needed to create and use a player are outlined, with sample code for an example JMF applet. It includes an introduction to advanced issues, an outline of future development work, and some general conclusions. (2,500 words)
