how to change the volume on individual sounds. I have the sounds linked from the library but when I use the setVolume command in actionscript, it lowers the volume on ALL the sounds and not just the sound I'm trying to target.
View 1 RepliesI been trying to find this but no luck so far. Is it possible to get different soundmixer values for two different sounds that are playing at the same time?
At the moment it seems to me that the soundmixer takes the combined sound output for analysis, which si not what I need.
how to create a mute button successfully but only with the global sound setting (so all sounds mute or play). What i need to understand is how to use the Sound class to control individual streaming sounds.
I have 3 sounds and 3 buttons. The 3 sounds correspond to clapping, vocalizing, and the instrument playing, all of the same rhythm. I want the user to have the ability to hear all 3 at once and toggle on and off (muting, not actually stopping) each sound via the respective buttons.
I cannot call the sounds dynamically, because I need them embedded (streaming) to sync graphics with them (the names of the beats change color with each drum beat) and need to see the sounds graph in the timeline. What I want is for all 3 sounds to start simultaneously, all syncing with the same graphics on the stage, and for the buttons to toggle mute/unmute for each individual sound, so that the user can hear them all, only 2, or just 1 at any point, without ever stopping the looping sounds.
This is the code I have that is working for muting all the sounds, but I have no idea how to target the individual sounds instead. The following is only for one button, but there will be 3 buttons, one for each sound:
Actionscript Code:
function setMute(vol){var sTransform:SoundTransform = new SoundTransform(1,0);sTransform.volume = vol; SoundMixer.soundTransform = sTransform;}var Mute:Boolean =
[Code]...
I realize the SoundTransform is what applies it globally. How do I reference each sound individually?
I've created a small music player with a sliding volume control. I'm having trouble with the volume. Though it does control volume properly, if I set the initial volume to less than 100%, the volume always starts at 100% until I move my mouse over the player. At that point, the volume changes to whatever the initial volume is set to.Is this a flash bug, or am I missing something? Here is the affected code (code for other buttons/functions omitted for brevity):
var song_initvolume:Number = 100;
slider_1._x = groove_1._x + song_initvolume;
playSong(0,song_play);[code]....
I'd like to be able to set the volume at say 50%, but the above mentioned behavior happens each time.
On a movieclip I have a sound that plays whenever the movieclip is dragged over the right object. It works but the problem is that it lowers the volume of the background music (which I don't want). I think that if it were possible to change the type of sound using ActionScript to an Event sound it would work.Here is the code:
ActionScript Code:
unlocking = new Sound(this);
unlocking.attachSound("unlock");
unlocking.start();
I converted the slider bar and slider button to buttons. Then, I made the slider button into a movie clip.
Here is the code I placed while slider button was a button:
Code:
on (press) {
startDrag(this, false, left, top, right, bottom);
}
[Code]....
It seems right to me but I don't know. The movie button slides down the slider bar but it just doesn't affect the volume. Going to try to attach my FLA to offer better insight. Just tried to upload it and no matter if it's FLA or zipped FLA, it says it failed.
I need to control the volume of all sounds in the movie even if they were in the timeline so they do not have an instance name,by AS3.0 code?
View 5 RepliesDoes anyone know of a way to adjust the volume of all the sounds in a swf? I'm looking to build a volume controller that changes the audio level of the swf.
View 1 RepliesI'm working on a project in which sound plays an important part. I want to be able to adjust the volume of two sounds independently, �nd have access to the position in the soundfile. The code below plays 2 soundfiles ("L36 Bass.wav" & "L36 Perc.wav"). The sounds are declared as 'new Sound' with qualifiers("L36Bass" and "L36Perc" recpectively) in line 03 & 04 within empty movieclips, to allow individual volume-adjustments. The volume-mix between the 2 is then governed by the x-mouse position (line 10 - 16):
[Code]...
This works just fine (as long as the WAV-files are in the library and the option 'Export for Actionscript' is selected). However, when I try to access the position within a soundfile with the statement SndBass.position; this results in an 'undefined-error'. When I remove the qualifier in line 03, and go for 'SndBass = new Sound()' in stead of 'SndBass = new Sound("L36Bass")', the property SndBass.position is available, but, as expected, the individual volume-control is lost.
here is a more detailed version of my previous post. I have multiple buttons with random sounds being played on release through linkage of those sounds. Some buttons have 3 sounds, some have 2, which are played randomly. I know there are scripts for volume of each individual sounds, but that won't help here, I have many sounds that need to be controlled by volume buttons. I had 2 ideas: either tell me I can do them or tell me I'm stupid.
Give each sound the same instance name, and have a script increase the volume of that instance, therefore inceasing the volume of all the sounds -OR- Have the code that changes the volume of each sound, and have it do just that: increase the volume of each sound. In other words, have that script for each individual sound, over and over again for each sound (lots of scripting).
I'm having an issue with setting the volume on my sounds.
I have a number of movieclips, that when clicked on, play a sound. I have created an Event Handler for the movieclip, that when it is clicked on, the sound plays, but the setVolume is higher.
I also have background music, set a bit lower than the rest. Here's the issue, when I click on the movieclip that makes it's specific sounds go higher, the background music goes higher also.
How do I set the volume of my movieclip without it changing the volume of the other sound/s?
Here's the code:

gameMusic.setVolume(50);
gameMusic.start(0, 500);

I want gameMusic to stay at 50, but it goes to 300 when I click on shark. Why would that change it?
I have seven loops in total. I imported them into the library. i've put each of them in a seperate movie clip with the names loop1,loop2,.In those movie clips, the first (key)frame contains the action stop(); . The second frame is a keyframe too and from here on the sound starts. And of course they loop.Okay, now the buttons to control the movie (Prev, Stop, Play, Next) work fine, but let me explain the system i used. I used a var loopnumber and everytime you click Next or Prev, it '+'es 1 or '-'es 1. I also set a variable number_to_play = "_root.loop"+loopnumber, so you would get _root.loop--number--, where --number-- is 1,2,3,4,5,6 or 7. To actually play the sound, i used tellTarget(number_to_play) {gotoAndPlay(2)}.That's why i added stop(); to the first frame of those clips.how can i make a volume slider for those sounds inside my movie clips ? I've checked this forum already for questions like this but they don't use the system I use.

View 5 RepliesI am working on a project for school using ActionScript 3. I have a matrix created with an animated movie clip. The matrix looks like a bunch of shapes changing size and color on the screen. I would like to have it so when I move my mouse moves over an individual shape in the matrix the alpha will change to be more transparent... like 0.5. I'm sure it would be a mouse move function, but I don't know how to write that part of the code.[code]...
View 16 RepliesI have a Flex DataGrid where one individual cell needs to be rendered in a different way from others. Specifically, for one row of the grid, one of its cells should be hidden.
The DataGridColumn is set out like this in my .mxml file:
[Code]...
but that doesn't work - in fact it messes up the display in a rather entertaining fashion (one of the other cells in the row gets an extra checkbox.. I suspect it may be possible by using a custom ItemRenderer class but that seems like a lot of code overhead for a fairly simple case.
I've gotten as far as getting a listbox with a list of articles to display the articles in a dynamic text box, only i can only get it to work if i use one huge external text file that contains all the articles. what i want is to have each item on the list open up its own external text file, i.e. for each item on the list, there exists a separate text file. I'm about ready to put my fist through the monitor, and that would suck because this is a really nice monitor

I have several sounds of same length playing on the Timeline, each playing in loop on their own layer so that they can be syncronised on the same tempo (i did not managed to do this through pure AS3).
Is it possible to manipulate the sounds on this timeline individually via actionscript (ie: add listeners, change volume, read position) ?
Is there any way by which I can change the volume of the Speaker?
When I use Microphone class, I can set the mic.gain to set the gain in the microphone, likewise can I change the volume of the speaker?
I have seen, some websites allow you to change the decibel gain of the speaker in Flash.
I am trying to use the slider component (aSlider) to control the volume of mySound which is a class called PlaySound. Created an addEventListener for aSlider with a SlideEvent.CHANGE executing a function called changeVolume. Everything else works but I can't seem to get the slider to control the volume of mySound.
import flash.events.Event;import fl.controls.Slider;import fl.events.SliderEvent;import fl.controls.Label;
var mySound:PlaySound = new PlaySound ;

Searching for how to change the volume of sounds, I always get this irritating snd=new Sound(URLRequest), followed by snd.setVolume(val). Oh, fine, but my sound is not an URLRequest, it's an embed.
I've made a lot of random attempts (1) to no avail. How am I supposed to do that instead?
(1) including casting my class to Sound, creating a Sound with the embed class as argument, creating a SoundTransform and setting it to the channel, etc.

View 10 Replieshow one goes about changing the colour on the volume bar for playing videos like youtube does as the volume slider is moving. I don't think I need to go into depth using the graphics classes. What I'm looking for are ideas when a user changes the volume while playing a video, say in youtube, while dragging the volume control, the colour of the background bar changes. I've seen lots of help about creating volume bars for videos, but I don't see how to change the volume bar colour as the volume slider is moving.
