Re: [Flashcoders] Controllingt he volume of multiple sound objects at the same time
Sound objects associated with the same movie clip share their
properties (volume, etc.), so if you change the volume through one of
them, the change will be reflected by others, too. That is because in
fact sound properties belong to movie clips and not the Sound objects,
and Sound objects only reflect the sound settings of the associated movie
clip.

Subject: [Flashcoders] Controllingt he volume of multiple sound objects at the
same time
--===--
Hey there. I am trying to control the volume of a number of sound objects that
have their own individual volume levels. I want to be able to mute them or
allow them to play at the volume that has been set for them. I was thinking
that I could do this by storing the values in arrays and then looping through
these each time the sound is muted/unmuted but I am sure there must be an
easier way.
Any suggestsions v gratefully received :)
Here is what I have so far:
var sound1:Sound = new Sound(this);
sound1.setVolume(60);
var sound2:Sound = new Sound(this);
sound2.setVolume(20);
sound1.loadSound('an.mp3', false);
sound2.loadSound('another.mp3', false);

[Flashcoders] Controllingt he volume of multiple sound objects at the same time
That is just what i am lookig for eka thanks so much :)
Enjoy yr weekend!

Hello :)
in my opensource framework (VEGAS) i use a SoundLibrary class to manage my
sounds...
http://svn.riaforge.org/vegas/AS2/trunk/src/andromeda/media/SoundLibrary.as
Exemple :
{{{
import andromeda.media.SoundLibrary ;
var lib:SoundLibrary = new SoundLibrary() ;
lib.addSound( sound_1 ) ; // sound in the library with the link sound_1
lib.addSound( sound_2 ) ; // sound in the library with the link sound_2
lib.addSounds( [sound_3, sound_4] ) ; // add an Array of sounds in
the library
lib.loadSound( my_sound.mp3, sound5 ) ;
lib.loadSound( sound6.mp3 ) ; // add the external sound and auto
create the 'sound6' id of the sound in the library
lib.setVolume( 50 ) ; // all sounds in the library changes the volume.
lib.getSound(sound2).setVolume( 40 ) ; // change the volume of the
'sound2' Sound reference in the library.
}}}
This class inherit the SoundModel class :
http://svn.riaforge.org/vegas/AS2/trunk/src/andromeda/media/SoundModel.as
You can use an MVC pattern with this library with a global event flow etc..
This class is really easy to use :) Use the addSound or the addSounds ou the
loadSound methods to register your local or external sounds..
You can find the VEGAS project page in Google Code :
http://code.google.com/p/vegas/
You can find the tutorial to install VEGAS :
http://code.google.com/p/vegas/wiki/InstallVEGASwithSVN
You can find the documentation of my framework :
http://vegas.ekameleon.net/docs
You can find the SoundLibrary reference :
http://vegas.ekameleon.net/docs/andromeda/media/SoundLibrary.html
You can find the SoundModel reference :
http://vegas.ekameleon.net/docs/andromeda/media/SoundModel.html
You can see my AS2 opensource template AST'r .. in the sources of the
project you can see my personal usage of my Framework.. in this context i
use an external file of config to defines all sounds and i load an external
sound to shared the sounds of the the application

Re: [Flashcoders] Controllingt he volume of multiple sound objects at the same time
Yes, but he has created a separate Sound object for each sound
(sound1 and sound2), so he's fine in that respect.
What would make this simpler, however, is to write a function that
creates the sound objects based on the array, while also storing the
initial volume for each sound. Here's an UNTESTED example:
// build the array based on linked sounds in the library (catMeow etc.):
var theSounds: Array = [catMeow , dogBark , alienScream , doorCreak]
// create a parallel array of sound levels for each sound:
var theVolumes: Array = [50,65,90,5];
// create a sound object for each array element:
for (i=0; itheSounds.length; i++){
// create the sound object and attach the sound:
this [theSounds[i] + SoundObject'] = new Sound();
this [theSounds[i] + SoundObject'].attachSound (this [theSounds[i]);
// create a variable to store the initial volume for each sound:
this [theSounds[i] + SoundObject'].initVolume = theVolumes[i];
// set the volume for this sound:
this [theSounds[i] + SoundObject'].setVolume(this
[theSounds[i] + SoundObject'].initVolume);
}
Where sound name is the name of the sound object:
To play a sound, just use (sound name).start.
To mute it, use (sound name).setVolume(0);
To restore the volume, use (sound name.setVolume(sound
name.initVolume). You could construct a function for this where the
only arg would be the sound name.
