Description
I was experimenting with flash and its ability to analyze sound input through a microphone (which is a limited ability). A circle is instantiated onEnterFrame. The size of the circle is dependant on the volume of the sound input. This piece is called the entertainer because a good portion of this composition was generated from the song "The Entertainer" being played on piano.Here is all of the actionscript used:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("sound_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth());
var active_mic:Microphone = Microphone.get();
sound_mc.attachAudio(active_mic);
active_mic.setGain(65);
active_mic.setSilenceLevel(10);
active_mic.onActivity = function(active:Boolean) {
if (active) {
active_mic.setUseEchoSuppression(true);
}
};
a=1;
b=1;
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if(active_mic.muted == false) {
circle = this.attachMovie("circle","circle"+a,this.getNextHighestDepth());
a++;
b++;
if(b > Stage.height) b=0;
if(a > Stage.width)a=0;
circle._x = a;
circle._y = active_mic.activityLevel + b;
circle._width = circle._height = active_mic.activityLevel;
}
};

do you place the circle mc off stage on a seperate layer? and do you put the actions on a blank keyframe or on or in the sound_mc?
