Examples for Page Sonification
In our first example, let's sound a beam scan. The frame name is "/beamscan" and it has two labels: "start" and "stop". First, try it (the track's length is a couple of seconds, so stop it immediately if you want to catch it before the end of the track):
Play the beam scan
Stop the beam scan
We have a few examples on this page. Since you can associate a single SWF file with each FlashSound object, we need to create a FlashSound object for each SWF file. Here is the code for the example above:
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT SRC="flashsound.js"></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT>
var mySoundObj1 = new FlashSound();
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<P><A HREF="javascript://"
onclick="mySoundObj1.TGotoAndPlay('/beamscan',
'start')">Play the beam scan</A>
<P><A HREF="javascript://"
onclick="mySoundObj1.TGotoAndPlay('/beamscan',
'stop')">Stop the beam scan</A>
<SCRIPT>
mySoundObj1.embedSWF("interactivesound.swf");
</SCRIPT>
</BODY>
</HTML>
Our next example is taken from the kung fu martial art. The SWF file "hyperkungfu_32.swf" includes a dozen different sound bits associated with kung fu. In the example below the sound bits are called after their lables in the SWF file. Try them out:
Play the b1 sound
Play the k1 sound
Play the k2 sound
Play the k3 sound
Play the p2 sound
Play the p3 sound
Play the p4 sound
Play the p5 sound
Play the v2 sound
Play the v3 sound
Play the w1 sound
Play the w2 sound
We use the object mySoundObj2 for this example. Here is the source code for the first two links:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT SRC="flashsound.js"></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT>
var mySoundObj2 = new FlashSound();
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<P><A HREF="javascript://"
onclick="mySoundObj2.TGotoAndPlay('/b1',
'start')">Play the b1 sound</A>
<P><A HREF="javascript://"
onclick="mySoundObj2.TGotoAndPlay('/k1',
'start')">Play the k1 sound</A>
<SCRIPT>
mySoundObj2.embedSWF("hyperkungfu_32.swf");
</SCRIPT>
</BODY>
</HTML>
Our third example shows Flash's ability to fade and stop. Here is a link that start a funky music and another one that fades and stops it:
Play the funky music
Fade and stop the funky music
We use the mySoundObj3 object for this example. This is the source code:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT SRC="flashsound.js"></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT>
var mySoundObj3 = new FlashSound();
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<P><A HREF="javascript://"
onclick="mySoundObj3.TGotoAndPlay('/fistycuffs',
'start')">Play the funky music</A>
<P><A HREF="javascript://"
onclick="mySoundObj3.TGotoAndPlay('/fistycuffs',
'fadetostop')">Fade and stop the funky music</A>
<SCRIPT>
mySoundObj3.embedSWF("funkymusic.swf");
</SCRIPT>
</BODY>
</HTML>
