there are many sites which i have seen audio bars working as if music was being played when there isnt. i was wondering if there was any code or method to creating this audio bars efect without having to creat loads of new layers and motion tweens?

Do you mean a volume slider? Or a play progress bar? If you’re wanting to learn just how to make a slider in general, there’s a tutorial at [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/slider.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/slider.htm)

Most fake equalizers look generic and artificial. But if used right, it could look superb.
