Good Morning,
I am looking to build a program with some multi-media controls, to replace some of the physical components of my mobile DJ system. There are freeware solutions out there that so most of what I want, but each leaves one or two things to be desired.

First thing is, is this even possible with the IDE I have (VB6) without purchaseing expensive (say over $200) add-ins. Anyone built an app like this before?

Second is what type of app this should be. I am guessing that ActiveX EXE is the most likely route seeing as I need to be able to control the aspects of playback for two media files on several forms (frmCD1, frmCD2, frmMixer, frmDB).

Any help/enlightenment/points in the right direction... on this matter is, as always, extremely appreciated.

Take care,
Craig
