The SoundObject Class is basically a wrapper for the Sound and SoundChannel classes. These can be a little tricky or confusing to work with in their raw forms. The SoundObject Class strives to provide all of the expected functionality in an intuitive package.
Usage is simple, make an instance of the Class pass along the URL to an mp3 file. Call the play method to play() the sound, stop() the sound or pause() to pause the sound. Much simpler than using Sound and SoundChannel.
This has a few other methods and could use a few more. This could definitely see an update in the near future.
