Flash :: Audio Sampler

Small Audio Sampler
I'm building a site for a client that wants a small audio sampler in their site, it will play 10 sounds in mp3 format and the user will have the capacity to download the individual sounds in .wav format, these will be stored in zip files and called using the geturl function.

The sounds need to play independently of each other, so if a user clicks on sound4 for example, any other sound will cease to play. I'm thinking of using the stopallsounds function as the first piece of script on each button that launches the streaming sound, will this create any problems?

What i'm unsure of before i beign building the player is how i should put it together for optimum usability. Would it be best to load all the textual info from an xml file and manually code the buttons or would it be possible to make it in such a way that the xml file, (or a php file?) dynamically creates the necessary play and download button for each sound in the xml. I've looked at using id3 but since the data cannot be loaded until the sound has downloaded i dont think this will work with streaming sounds.

Like i said, i'm still at the planning stage so any input or ideas that anyone has will be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Audio Suggestions
I am currently in the process of creating a flash file that will contain narration. Can someone please suggest what rate I should convert the mp3 to?

Right now I am recording at 44100 Hz, 16 Bit, Stereo in a wave file just to get the best quality for the recording, I later will convert it into mp3 format. Right now for testing purposes, I converted the wav file to a 128kbps, mono MP3. This is still too large of a file and was wondering what other people use when converting audio to be used for narration.

Cheers

Audio Dilemma - Ideas/suggestions?...
I made a Flash game (MX2004) with like 15-levels that is to be played online....

I have 11 mp3s on a server all titled "track"-and-then-a-number(1-11).mp3. Each MP3 is about 2-3MB....

I want a random track to be played for every level, so I put the following code on the start frame of each level:

Code:
tracknum=random(11)+1;
var mySound = new Sound(this);
mySound.loadSound("track"+tracknum+".mp3",true);
My problem is that, with the size of the MP3s, the songs don't really even start until like 5-10 seconds into the level (and that's on my high-speed connection, so it's probably terrible for a dial-up user). I'm not the greatest with using audio in Flash, so this is the only way I'd know how to accomplish what I want. Is there a more efficient way that I may just not know about?....

....something using the "linkage" somehow, maybe? I don't know - I wouldn't even know where to begin with that. Any suggestions/help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

CD Sampler Thingy Question
Hey,

I guess the topic explains it all.. okay so it doesn't. Let me explain. Basically what I am trying to pull off is making a CD that when you pop it in a interactive CD thing pops up. I want it to have a little intro then go to a menu where you can select different choices etc etc. Basically like an all flash site but on a CD and with a different purpose.

Now that I explained that, here is my question. I have a general idea about what to do but I don't know the best way of doing it. I know I could make a menu SWF and have it load external SWF Files into it when you click on one of the menu choices. Is this the best way of pulling something like this off? Also, does anyone know how to go about getting it onto a CD so it open when you stick it in, and have it like take up the whole screen like interactive CDs always do? Thanks a ton in advance!

1172:Definition Flash.sampler:pauseSampling Could Not Be Found
Hi Guys,

I have just basic knowledge of Flash. Few months ago my company outsourced a Flash Project. Now I need to make a very minor change to it. After making the change when I publish, it shows me the following error:

1172 Definition flash.sampler(colon)pauseSampling could not be found

To me it looks like I'm missing some class in Flash? I looked up the search engines and I found this is something related to Flex? Please advise what do I need to to do.

Thanks very much.

Can Flash Detect Realtime Audio Data? (for Linking Visuals To Audio Velocity, Etc)
I've seen a lot of Oscilloscopes for Flash but they've all been fake - they simply generate random patterns that look convincing, expecially if the sound is erratic and would produce chaotic oscilloscope feedback anyway, but they actually have no connection whatsoever to the sounds that are playing.

I've heard people claim however that real oscilloscopes can actually be made in Flash, and I was wondering if anyone could point me towards some resources for looking into it.

I have a distinct feeling that they are probably misguided or just plain incorrect anyway, but it's still a prospect that interests me a lot.

Much thanks,
pH

Audio Player That Requires Access Codes To Play Audio Files. Possible ?
LINK

I've just uploaded this rough piece of website for an upcoming band. If you click LINK you will see two flash movies. The one on the bottom is the audio player. What they want instead of JUST an audio player, is a player that plays certain "secret" audio files if you enter the correct 6 digit number. So imagine a text field and a submit button next to the < || > controls. I'm still getting to know Flash and I have no idea how to create something like this. Anyone have any advice? Any tutorials out there? Info? and finally...this IS possible right?

Thanks

Audio Player/playing Audio Files Externally (mp3)
I've designed the audio player with all of the necessary buttons. I'm trying to play the mp3 files in an consecutive order. I am having trouble stopping or pausing, rewinding and fast-forwarding the mp3 file. I also have a next button and a back button and I don't know how to get them to work either. I have a slider, but can't get it to work either. Please help! I tried to follow the tutorial on flash kit, but wasn't quite understanding it.

Stopping Audio And Starting Another Audio When Button Clicked
Hello,
I have a multiple slide document, and I want sound to stop when they click the "Next" button, and another audio clip to start. Here is what I have so far:

//audio
x = new Sound();
x.attachSound("Slide1");
x.start(0, 0);
musicplay = true;
forward_btn.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndStop("2");
numbering eq numbering++;
};

So I just want it to play audio clip "Slide2" when they click forward_btn, and I want "Slide1" to stop.

Thanks!

Flash Audio Player For Streaming Audio
I am working on our church's website and am trying to add mp3 sermons for our visitors to listen to. I have a player that I downloaded but is has some problems, for some reason it will play 2 files at the same time, sometimes it says file not found and I am not sure why. I do not have the FLA file just the SWF that was on the website for download so I can't make any changes. Can anyone tell me how to make a flash audio player with play, stop, pause, rewind and fast forward buttons. Or if anyone has a sample player that I could use for my church, I need it as small as possible and do not need a playlist. Any help would be great.

I really like looking at and learning from some of those "experiemental" or demo-for-the-hell of it type Flash-er's sites, particularly the ones that give you a download-the-fla option, like http://experiments.coldstorageonline.com/ for example...
I used to have a list (I mean on actual paper) of a bunch of cool ones, and I seem to have lost the $#@* thing... Can any of you guys make some suggestions? I think you probably know the type of sites I'm referring to... not really portfolio sites per-se, more like a list of numbers, usually, and each one represents some cool effect this person has created... and as I said, sometimes they include the Flash. I have been out of the Flash World for a year or so, and I'm trying to get myself up to speed again.
My apologies to all if this is the wrong forum to put this on, please move it if there is a more appropriate place...

Looking For Suggestions
Ok,

My site seems to be CPU hungry. Now, on my machine I have no problem with it, but I'm running 1GB of RAM with a 2.6Ghz P4 processor. On
machines running 256 or less it becomes sluggish.

The site is set up in a HTML table - where the center column holds 3 swf's. The middle being my main movie, the top "header" an animation, and the bottom holds another swf that actually loads in the swf playing in the header and masks off a portion of it.

Now the file sizes arn't too bad, my main swf (w/preloader) is about 20KB - and loads in content on request. The top swf is about 68KB with no tweening, all scripted using an empty 500 frame MC as a filter to achieve the transitions. The bottom swf is only 4.3KB (at this time) and then loads in the same swf running on top <<<wondering if maybe I should copy that file, use a different file name to stop from accessing the animation from two different swf's.

:::HERE IT IS:::

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I'm sure this has already been asked but I kept getting timed out when searching. I first tried to export to avi but the file sizes are huge so I'm looking into zipping up the swf's. The only problem I'm having now is finding a decent, free flash player. I found Infranview which actually seems pretty good but you have to download plugins for it play swf's. Which isn't a problem for me but I want to make it as easy as possible on my viewers. Any suggestions?

My question is how to make a movie symbol move in relation to the coordinate system of its parent.

Consider the following code. This function is placed on a layer of a movie symbol. A rectangle, named "box" is also placed on a layer. The function simply centers the rectangle and scales it to the size of the document when it is clicked.

box.onMouseUp = function() {
xCenter = 400; //horiz. center of document (width=800)
yCenter = 300; //vert. center of document (height=800)
bWidth = 800; //desired width of full sized box
bHeight = 600; //desired height of full sized box

onEnterFrame = function() {
if(box._x != xCenter) {
box._x += ((xCenter - box._x)/5);
}

if(box._y != yCenter) {
box._y += ((yCenter - box._y)/5);
}

if(box._width < bWidth) {
box._width += ((bWidth - box._width)/5);
}

if(box._height < bHeight) {
box._height += ((bHeight - box._height)/5);
}
};
};

My problem is that when the movie symbol described above is placed onto the main timeline and scaled, or moved, it centers and scales itself to the wrong size and place. I hope this isn't too confusing. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

What's the preferred approach:

1. Import audio and images into Flash and build there?

2. Build everything in a video editing environment (I'm experienced -- Avid MC, Final Cut Pro, Premiere), then convert to fla?
