I want to make something like what is on this page. http://www.ghostligh...s/evp_todie.htm

I want to be able to make that thing that plays the audio, with the waveform thing and all.

[chainz]

Anyone? I just need to know how to get a picture of the waveform and add it and add the sound and synconise it with the waveform.

thats a pretty freaky site, but the actual music player is simple actionscript, im not sure how to show the image though

[chainz]

I took a screenshot of the waveform and how can I get the Line to play over and sync the sound with the waveform?

wow .. that site scared the shit out of me


nice job

[chainz]

I didn't make it. But they are EVP's. If you wanna know what evp's are, look it up on google.

Upload to your own web space in a zip file

Well this doesn't look that hard.

Step 1:

Go to flash and import the wave file in the library. Click Edit and when the waveform thingy appears, print screen it.

Step 2:

Go to Photoshop or Paint or any other graphics program (I think print screen works in Flash too, I dunno) and select the waveform in a nice little box (maybe you could ad some design to it, like the site you offered had) and save the small box with the waveform.

Step 3:

Go back to flash, import the small jpeg or Gif with the waveform box. Now design two more buttons that will play and stop the wave.

Step 4:

The play button will have two frames: the first one will have the code stop(); while the second one will contain the sound file.

Now go in the main scene and name the play button "play" (label it in the left part of the properties screen). Then on the first frame of the whole flash file write the code:

play.OnRelease = function()
{
this.gotoAndPlay(2);
}

Step 5:
Do the same thing with the Stop button (name it Stop) and then add the code:

stop.onRelease = function ()
{
stopAllSounds();
}

Step 6:
Now create the white line that will move with the sound using another movie clip - name it "line".

The line movie clip will look like this inside it:
1st frame stop();
next frames will contain the animation.

To create the line animation, look at how many frames the sound has (for ex 10) and the move the line in the animation layer's 10th frame for the length of the waveform box. Then use a move tween.

Then position the line movie clip to the left of the waveform box and add the following line to the actionscript:

play.onRelase = function()

{
this.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.line.gotoAndPlay(2);
}


Well this is about it. I'm writing as I'm thinking, I didn't actually design the fucker but I think I got everything right. If this doesn't work, please tell me, maybe I can provide further help.
