Controlling volume in a Flash Slide Show

programming flash
1

Hello,

I am working in Flash Slide Presentation mode. I have a started a sound file playing on the “master” slide and I want it to play throughout my entire presentation. However, on a couple of slides, I want to play some short voice clips. How can I “turn down the volume” a bit on the main sound file so as to hear the short voice clips? And then turn it back up when the voice clip ends?

I understand basic Actionscript. Can anyone tell me the code or point me to a tutorial which I can use to accomplish this?

Thanks in advance.

If slides are different then “regular” flash files this may not work.
You would set up a Sound object and then you can change the volume using setVolume.
Is that master sound file connected to a movieclip?


var s:Sound = new Sound(this.createEmptyMovieClip());
s.load(*nameofsound.mp3*);
s.setVolume(30);
