FlashAmp 3 Released

Marmalade Multimedia announces the release of FlashAmp 3 for Windows and Macintosh. FlashAmp is the sound-visualization utility for Macromedia Flash 8 and MX2004. Use FlashAmp 3 to create perfectly synchronized audio animations and visualizations based on sound frequencies and amplitude, and easily lip sync character animations in Flash.

FlashAmp 3 is available now, with new features including a Preview window with animated spectrum and waveform displays, and new spectrum and amplitude functions to give you more control over the audio data that you can use in Flash.

I love flashamp. [whisper]regardless of whether this thread is self promotion[/whisper]

Thanks MTsoul. And, yes, the post could be regarded as self promotion but it’s a fair bet that readers of this forum may be interested and we need to spread the word.

And we’re always interested in seeing stuff that people have done with FlashAmp, so if you’d like to share then let us know.

I know someone who is using this and he may want to share it (soon). It is pretty amazing too - it’s basically an online iTunes made with Flash.

Going to be buying this tomorrow…good stuff man.

■■■■ thats sweet :slight_smile: – downlaoded the trial - ( Voets I think we need to add a spectrum wave to the Uber- voets player ) - Purchasing soon :slight_smile:

p.s Check out the “spectrum Waterfall” sample at http://www.marmalademedia.com.au/flashamp/examples.html# (flashamp 3 examples)

OMG!!!:crazy:

oooo really impressive man, very very kewl… and that waterfall one… is scrumdidlyumptious :wink:

a tad on the expensive side though :frowning:

I like flashamp, purchased it a long time ago for a client, but this can now be done realtime with AS3 and when that goes full public release flashamp is dead in the water, check out Andre’s example (you need player 8.5) http://blog.andre-michelle.com/2006/soundmixercomputespectrum/

yup that would pretty much kill flashamp that AS3 sample is clean…How are they doing now it if it is not possible in AS2?

I would guess the language that flash amp is made with allows you to compute a spectrum analysis of the sound, that in turn is made into an array that flash can read.

The technique with as3 is similar, compute a spectrum, put it in a byte array and itterate through that array to create a visual, as3 will be more gangster than al capone, ive also an example of the bytearray/compute spectrum method at (super tacky compared to AM’s example tho) http://www.ramieb.com/sound/index.swf (player 8.5)

^^ I think AS3 will also take down this kind of application :frowning:

Stil lthough potentially flash amp can become better more sophisticated libraries should make the application more powerful.
