I'm looking at an old Director movie with a sound in it. The sound is internal, and I don't have the source file to investigate. This sound starts with a rising pitch, reaches some point and stays there (actually, think of the sound of a car starting out and then reaching cruisingI don't know that I can tell you how to reproduce this yourself, only that I've seen a similar sound file in one of MM's Training from the Source-type CDs that came with a Peachpit Press book. The movie file involves animating a mechanical arm to move up and down the left side of the stage and a series of cast members to swap that shows the arm extending and retracting. The sound file that comes with this movie does exactly what you describe - when you turn on looping it does so not from the start of the file but from some point into the file. I realize that this should be achievable with (newer) sound lingo, but this file worked in D7, before any of that was available.
speed). When I turn looping on for the sound, it does the starting out, gets to the cruising and loops on the cruising - the starting out part is not repeated in the looping.
Can anyone offer a guess what was done to allow/cause this sound to work like this?
I've never heard of any explanation of how to achieve this, but looked around in Sound Forge for possible options and thought I'd found one that looked promising, but having just had another quick look I can't find what it was and it was years ago I was trying to recreate this effect.
Perhaps Buzz has some ideas?
