Controling sound file on stage...

[michanagel]

Hi,

I've placed a soundfile on the stage in my timeline and set it to 'loop'.

I wanna control this soundfile via actionscript (setting the volume to '0' or '100' via the 'if' statement if certain parameters are met).

How can I assign an instance_name or variable for that soundfile ?

I gave it the linkage 'sound_main' but I can't control it with that...

I don't wanna work with the 'attachsound' method - I like to see my stuff on the stage...

Thanx for your help in advance !

Mike

Define the root as a soundObject... And control the volume through it...

On the main timeline...

mySound = new Sound(this);
mySound.setVolume(50);

oldnewbie,

I only wanna control one specific sound file, and not affect the other sounds on the timeline...

Thanx for your help !

Stick it in a movie clip, and control it in the same manner...

mySound = new Sound(music_mc);
mySound.setVolume(10);

Or you can set your sound in an external .swf, and load it up either in a container clip, or on a level, and reference the soundObject to either the container clip or the level...
