Playing randomised audio files through independently randomised trial loops

For reference, you mean this thread I think:

Issues playing audio across conditions

OS: X Yosemite PsychoPy version: 1.85.6 Standard Standalone?: Yes What are you trying to achieve?: I am trying to design an experiment that presents a series of words while music plays continuously in the background. Within an experimental condition, 4x8 word lists are to be presented to the participant whilst listening to the appropriate audio file. To elaborate, I want a list of 8-words to be presented (each word allocated a window of 3seconds) followed by a break. This break is to allow pa…

Why wouldn’t that sort of approach work for you?

However what I am uncertain about is how to do this in a manner in which the order of the music conditions is itself randomised independently from the random order of the n-back conditions.

In that thread, you’ll see that the list of music files is explicitly randomised in code, independently of any other conditions.
