ActionScript 3.0 :: Muting Individual Streaming Sounds Vs Global Sound
Oct 22, 2010
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'm doing a project that has a lot of time line animation.There are 5 buttons. Each one plays a multi-frame MovieClip containing sounds embedded in its timeline.Then there is a button that stops any of the playing movie clips. Of course, this doesn't stop the soundsormally, I'd just use...ActionScript Code:SoundMixer.SoundTransform.stopAll();Problem is, I also have non-timeline sounds that I have playing on a loop for background music, and the SoundMixer would stop the music too. But I don't want the music to stop.Doing some research, I think any MovieClip can have a SoundTransform property you can adjust, so I should be able to control the sounds just inside specific MovieClips. But I can't figure it out.

How are you all going?? I'm having a bit of trouble with muting some sound and unmuting it with the same button.[code]What i'm trying to do is mute the sound when the button is clicked...and then when it's clicked unmute the sound..I was thinking about using an if statement to check if the volume was set to 0 and if so change it to 100 and visa versa.i'm muting the sounds on the root level of my swf...

I 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.

I followed the mp3player tutorial (part 3) from [URL] and got it working fine. Only problem is that the setVolume I'm trying to use with my music is affecting all my other sounds - button sounds and background sound. I'm aware of the createEmptyMovieClip/attachSound approach and got it working on my other sounds. But Lee's tutorial-mp3player is using a slight different technique, and so my normal approach doesn't quite work.

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.

Scenario: Up to 50 instances of a display object are arbitrarily positioned on the stage.Is it better to create listeners for each individual instance or create one single global listener and then somehow find out which instance triggered the listener? If the latter is preferred,Will event.currentTarget tell which instance it was? And should I register the listener to the stage?

I am using a flash app. I can send and receive streaming data to FMS by using this app, like the chart I attached. [URL] This app uses RTMP to access to FMS. I want to upgrade this app to display sound level of each client. Is it possible by using Actionscript and FMS? If so, which class should I use?

I have imported my wav files to my library added them to the down state of my buttons and when I test the file I get (Sound has no valid device sound path although exporting device sounds was requested in the export settings. This sound will be ignored.) I have been surching for an answer but as of yet have found none.

I have some code that is connecting to a radio stream and it playing the music. That much works... I also have a little dropdown box which lets the user switch the stream... Whenever I try to switch the stream, I'm getting this error...
Error: Error #2037: Functions called in incorrect sequence, or earlier call was unsuccessful.at flash.media::Sound/flash.media:Sound::_load().
Code:
private function changeStation():void

sound.close();
I have tried to modify that block of code, but I can't seem to get anything to work...

As I have commented before I am building English teaching apps. I will have music playing in the background, words being pronounced and at times a surprise sentence. All three could sound at the same time at any given point. To build this properly should I use SoundChannel for all of these?
At the moment my code for the music loop is as so. The sound is in the library and exported for AS. Is this code fine or is it better to assign it to the SoundChannel class.

I made some sort of MP3 player based on an XML file, and I want to load the next track when pressed on a button. Well that part works, the problem is, when I play the next song, this is what happens:
- The next song plays
- The bar that is normally buffering is already full
- When I skip to a part of the song, it skips to the first song!
How can I "clear" a sound variable and load another one?

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 know global variables are supposed to be bad but is it possible to create global classes? I am creating an application and I want to have one class that handles sound. From any class I would like to be able to say soundhandler.playSound(); without having to pass references all over the place. It should just know it is there.

public function startMusicBack(music:String):void{
var musicback:Sound = new Sound();
var bgChannel:SoundChannel;

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:
Quote:
gameMusic.setVolume(50);
gameMusic.start(0, 500);
[Code]....
I want gameMusic to stay at 50, but it goes to 300 when I click on shark. Why would that change it?

I inherited a flash application at work that is basically a bunch of symbols with actionscript inside each of them. There is also an external actionscript file that serves as the application controller, with much of the application logic in various frames of Scene 1. Some of the symbols are supposed to play a sound file on mouse over, which they do just fine, but when I try to get the global sound volume from the controller:
E.g.
ActionScript Code:
var bVolume:Number = controller.getGlobalVolume();
It doesn't work because it doesn't recognize the controller object. This is strange because the controller is called all throughout the project, but it is not seen within symbols.
