## Overview

A sound theme is a set of event sounds that share a common feel, or instrument set. The user can then select the sound theme that they want to use, and all applications use sounds from the theme.

From a programmer perspective a sound theme is just a mapping. Given a set of directories to look for sounds in and a theme name it maps from sound name to a sound filename.
