SyntaxError: invalid syntax in ".../sound/__init__.py"

[davidmikolas]

I've pip installed to my Python 3.7 Anaconda installation, and have an invalid syntax error in init.py Have I done something wrong?

unfortunately this project is incompatible with python 3.7, which adds the async keyword which I was using as an identifier :(

Oh I see. Okay I will look into making an environment with an earlier version. I know it's not difficult but I have to go look it up.

Thanks for the speedy reply! Feel free to close the issue if you're planning on staying at 3.6
