I'm looking for a way to play a sound with slightly altering pitch to make it more "interesting" (read: tolerable).
I've previously used it with great results in java programming with the Slick library. Simply asked the sound to be played at 0.9 - 1.1 of original pitch (1 = default), gave a subtle but awesome effect.
After browsing the documentation for the sound classes, it seems there is no way to control sound pitch with Actionscript 3.0. there is only the ability to control volume and pan. why is there no pitch property? it's the only sound property missing for the ability to create a full featured sound engine in Actionscript?
i hope i'm misinformed, but in case i'm not are there any alternatives / workarounds to control pitch in AS3?
I'm working the last two weeks on a module which uses computeSpecturm() to analyze FFT data from a mic. I'm currnetly trying to figure out a way to detect the pitch on each 'sample' of this sound. Does any one know how to find the fundamental frequencty or how to use auto-correclation on the FFT to get the pitch?
View 4 RepliesI have a project where I dynamically generate a single tone and have to alter its frequency as the scene progresses. All the ways I have tried so far result in a clicking or popping noise when the tone's frequency changes. Does anyone have some source code for a way to change the frequency without the irritating click/pop noises?

View 2 RepliesI'm working on a new AS3 project in Flash CS4. This is my second major project, and for some reason, when I enter a new frame, a sound from my library plays when it's not supposed to. It plays once, when I enter the frame. The thing is, there's no code that would initiate it to do so. In my first major project, it did the same thing. I figured I screwed something up since it was my first project, and ignored it -[code]...
View 9 RepliesI have 30 sound clips, each named s1, s2, s3 etc...
i want to create an array so when it enters the frame it will play a random sound from the array.
I'm trying to load sound dynamically into a clip and then play it randomly. The AS I came up with works great if the sound is embedded and I use the .attachSound() method instead of loadSound(). Now, when I load it dynamically and use the code below, the sound plays very fast and at a higher pitch.
Code:
var crows = new Sound(this);
crows.loadSound("Raven.mp3", false);
crows.setVolume(100);

It's possible to play a sound file through AS, either by loading it from a folder or import it to flash. It's also possible to play a dynamic tone with flash.media.Sound + writeFloat.
But... is it possible to play a sound file with flash.media.Sound + writeFloat in some way? I want to play a sound file without having to deal with any files except the .swf!
i want to make a single button to play a sound, and if pressed again, stop the sound. and if pressed again, play the sound, and so on...

Ive tried to impliment everything I could find. No luck. I have an xml playlist with external .as files for an mp3 player. Here is my code. My code is below.

I have 5 boxes on the stage as movie clips, each one with the same animation waiting to be targeted. What I need is a random script that will make them play in "random" order. This should occur after a few seconds of inactivity where they each play, but once there's mouse movement, whichever ones did animate should "reset" or play back to their original positions, (assuming there's more boxes and there's movement before all of them play). I have some code in there for arrays and some random script that isn't working right now. I just need the random setup, really. I may be able to figure out the time delay, (maybe), and then be able to tweak the rest of it for how I need. Right now, I've just simplified everything in a 5 box example hoping someone might be able to work with what I have.
View 6 RepliesI'm trying to add sound to some buttons. It's just a little metallic 'klink' sound that plays on rollover. I only want the sound to play on the 'Over' state. So I've set up a layer (just for sound) for the button and I add my sound in the 2nd frame (the Over state). Everything is cool. All is good. And the sound plays on rollover. But the sound also plays when I click the button (i.e. it also plays on the "Down" state). Why? The Down state keyframe is completely empty. What's going on here? I've only put the sound in the "Over" keyframe, why does it also play in the "Down" frame (or when I click)?

View 2 RepliesI am working on a piece now that will have 10 invisible MC's (1-10) stacked on frame 1 in seperate layers that function like buttons on the main timeline. Each of these mc's will trigger a corresponding mc (A-J) to become visible and play and also start a sound file. This I have all worked out.
What I am writing about is a random function. When 1 triggers A, I would like one of five distinct MC's inside of A to be randomly selected to play, both with sound and with image.
Right now I'm working on the random function with sound, and I'm in need of soome assistance. I'm not sure of my approach, but why I'm stuck in particular now is because ususally when attaching a sound to an MC, when the sound is called it is through the name of the sound rather than the mc name and as I've created a random function I can't very well call the sound name as then it won't be random. Here's what I've got:
sound1 = new Sound(soundHolder1_mc);
sound1.attachSound("chime");
sound2 = new Sound(soundHolder2_mc);
sound2.attachSound("psychic");

I've designed an interactive quiz that has 10 questions, and for each question 3 possible answers (obviously only one of which is right), however I'd like to add some sound to certain questions and a small video clip. The only issue I'm having, and I've not been able to get my head around. I've loaded all the questions and answers into arrays, and used the random function to display them in a different order each time, and because of this I'm having trouble figuring out how I'll be able to implement the use of sound and video into the project.
I'll post the code so far below as to give a better idea of what I'm trying to do, and what I've done so far.

View 1 RepliesI'm developing using Actionscript 3.0 for Flash Player 10.3.I'm using computeSpectrum() on a loaded .mp3. Running *Event.ENTER_FRAME* to get snapshots of each sample in an byteArray.The ByteArray contains 512 values (256 for each channel). These values are FFT Spectrum, ranging from 0 to 1.I can't use the peak frequency for each of the samples (as I found found out!) because the highest value is not necessarily the fundamental frequency. As a result I'm getting lots of random values all over the place.Of course I'm getting some correct too, but that's not enough.
