help needed in choosing the right VLSI audio ic

Hi all, new member here :slight_smile:

I’m on the hunt for an audio playback ic that can handle seamless looping and play more than one sound at a time. I’m also still learning electronics so some of the data sheet info is a little over my head, but I can find my way around a schematic and translate it to component placement. The VLSI mp3 and ogg codecs ics look like they could work, but could use a few suggestions on which and how.

Anyone?
