Audio panning slider actionscript coding ???

Hello,
I am currently stuck. I am making an audio mixer interface in flash cs6 and with a play/stop button and a volume slider but I am now looking to add a panning left and right slider. However, I have looked throughout the Internet and can not find a tutorial for the actionscript coding. I am using actionscript 3.0.
I am looking to use a slider found already integrated in the software. If anyone can give me a link, templates, snippets or coding. Any guidance would be great help.
Thanks

Here's an example file that should help: http://www.ddg-designs.com/downloads/volumePan.zip
The basics are very simple: In the volume control, you are using the ratio of the sliding control's horizontal position to the total distance that it can slide. To achieve this you set the registration point of the constraining line at its left end. In the pan control you set the registration at the center of the constraining line and this gives you a positive number to the right and a negative number to the left for that ratio.

Audio pan slider is missing in Inspector

On a 17" MacBook Pro with Yosemite 10.1 and FCPX 10.1.4, I am working with some audio that needs to be panned left and right. In the Audio Inspector, I click the drop down for Pan Mode, select "Stereo Left/Right" but there is no pan slider. Any thoughts on how to return the pan slider? Is this a bug?

Built-In Audio Panning L&R malfunctions, system prefs.

I have noticed on my own Mac, as well as my peers' computers which include iBooks, PowerMacs, iMacs, and even a new MacBook pro, that the audio coming from the Built-in audio card will randomly be panned completely to the right, or the left.
A quick troubleshoot will lead you to find that in the system preferences the panning slider is set to the right or left, an undesirable setting.
All of the computers I mentioned are running the latest updated versions of Tiger, 10.4.6, and with the exception of my self running Pro Tools, none of the other computers mentioned are running any third party audio interfaces/cards or software that uses audio other than the applications included with Tiger: iTunes, iChat, Quicktime, Safari, etc.
Unfortunately there is no Lock in the audio system preferences, which could potentially be a quick fix to the problem because if an application like iChat had a bug which caused audio panning, the lock in system prefs. would prevent that..
I am quite boggled.
question:
What might be causing this, and is there a solution?

Thanks for the response guys. It seems we're in the same boat.
The problem is intermittent on my machine . It has occurred three times since I bought it. The fist time it lasted for a day and a half. I rang Apple support and went through a number of steps until the P-RAM suggestion which seemed to fix it. A few days later it disappeared again and resetting the P-RAM had no effect. My wife continued to use the computer (without sound) and some hours later it came back after a restart (she only restarted it because she is in the habit of shutting down instead of using sleep). The problem occurred again. That time I restarted the machine a number of times, with and without the external speakers plugged in, with them turned on and off etc. This had no effect. I gave up. Some time later my wife went to use the computer and it came back. I now believe that the P-RAM solution that seemed to fix the problem the first time was just a coincidence.
I rang Apple support again and they gave me the following steps (A,B & C of which I went through the first time the problem occurred):
A: Log in through another account and see if it had the same problem.
- The built-in audio was still missing.
B: Run the disk utility on the hard drive (after booting from installation DVD).
- There were nil problems on the HD, but it did not fix the problem.
C: Reset the P-RAM.
- This worked the first time though it has not worked on subsequent re-occurrences of the problem.
D: Do an Archive Reinstall.
- I did this today; though the built-in audio was working, I just wanted to complete the suggestions the Apple support person gave me. The problem has not reoccurred yet, but it has only been a few hours. I will be using the computer as much as possible tonight to see if the problem reoccurs.
If the problem reoccurs I'll be taking the machine in for warranty repairs, or better still replacement.

Lion Installed: Internal speakers muted and cannot be adjusted thru the audio pane.

I installed Lion yesterday and spent considerable time looking for an online solution to no avail.
The online info suggests to re-install the OS from the disk supplied with the laptop, but would be re-installing Snow Leopard... mmm
The quick fix is the plug headphones into the audio jack and wait a few seconds. The audio pane becomes active as it should. Remove the
headphones... the audio functions normally.
If you turn the laptop off... you must repeat the process until a future release of Lion.

Same problem here: I cannot control audio volume and Preference Panel said I've not an audio out device. the funny thing is that I can hear music from iTunes.
I've tried also to reset PRAM.

Audio Pans Grayed Out

Hey everyone,
My audio pans are grayed out, not sure why. I never encountered this problem before and wondering if anyone has any suggestions on how to un-gray them.
Thanks,
Rob

To get audio from my pans I use Calphalon cookware...sorry
I'm not clear on what you're asking about (ie panning from the timeline, panning from the Audio mixer).
What I can suggest though is double clicking the audio track to launch it in the viewer where you will have a great deal of control with your pans.

Captivate 5 Freezes when I try to Record Audio To Slide

Hello,
I'm having difficulties with recording audio to slide in Captivate 5. Recording to slides, background, and object work, but when I try to record to slide, the computer appears to freeze (until I press escape and then I can select buttons again).
I have Windows XP on my computer. I have deleted the preferences C:\Documents and Settings\name\Application Data\Adobe\Captivate, following advice on other threads, but this does not help.
This issue just started yesterday. I was able to record to slide before.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Debbie

Hi DebsterV,
Did you try upgrading the system audio drivers as RodWard suggested?
If even that does not resolve your issue, let me know so that we can have a connect session.
Thanks,
Vikranth.

Captivate 6, audio on slides randomly doesn't play

Hi,
I am working in Captivate 6 adding closed captioning to files originally created in Captivate 5.5 by someone else. The audio will randomly not work on a slide or 2 in preview mode and when published (though it worked perfectly before from 5.5, but had no closed captioning). The odd thing is that it's not always the same slide in which the audio disappears, and that the audio will typically come back a slide or 2 later. It is a rather large file at 105 slides, and the issue starts occurring around slide 75. So I am wondering if splitting up the files might help? And I am not sure if this is an issue with closed captioning, Captivate 6, or both?
Publishing to Flash Player 9 as it's a linear presentation with no interaction.
Here are screenshots of the timeline and properties from a slide that the audio seems to frequently disappear:
Any help/suggestions are appreciated.
Angela

Your issue might be due to the audio getting out of synch with the slides. Then at some point it has to wait to catch up.
Try this: Your screenshot of the slide timeline shows that the audio file is hard up against both ends of the slide. You need to create a small gap at the beginning and end of the audio file on each slide by just selecting the audio file and hitting the right arrow key twice move it to the right two frames, and then hit the left arrow key to move it back one frame. This will give you a one tenth second pause at the beginning and end of the audio on that slide. The end users will not detect the pause but because the gap is there, Captivate will think this piece of audio needs to be a separate clip. Isolating the audio on each slide this way helps synchronisation of audio with slides.
In any project over a few dozen slides I would never recommend using a single large audio file with markers synched to each slide. There are just too many different configurations of PC and browser out there that can cause playback to vary.

Capture Audio and Slide show with JMF?

Hello All;
Can anyone guide me to start on how to stream or capture both Audio from the Mic and Slide show from Power point and generate a AVI file.
ie., User starts presenting a Conference with Audio and Slide show, I want to implement an Application that runs in the background and Merges Audio and Slides to a AVI or MOV file.
Please help...
I tried using Screengrabber but please let me know what you think...

Well,i wnt to do that too.
I have this Algorithm(didnt implement that but...)
I will use Two Threads
one will be the Screen Grabber,
and with synchronzed Methods,and the Other thread will capture my voice .
Thus ,meaning using ONE Processor,TWO DataSources that we will merge and ONE dataSink to Save on a file.
That Bring me to My Question:
I cant Grab the Cursor in my Screen Grabber.
I use the Following Code:::
DataSource ds = Manager.createDataSource(new
MediaLocator("screen://0,0,176,144/10"));

mp.start();
Please Help me

Getting Audio across slides

I have had a great guy doing my breeze (Adobe Presenter)
presentations so I haven't had that much hands on experience. He
left the company and now I am up a creek.
I have a presentation and an audio file (50 min) that is
suposed to cover all the slides. I can't seem to get it to import
the audio for the whole presentation. What happens is that the
audio file gets associated with one slide and not the whole set.
Can someone tell me what I am doign wrong?
Thanks from the Newbie.
Tim

Solution : You can import that audio on slide 1 or to that
slide from where you want audio to start playing and then open
audio editor and move the slide markers so that audio gets
associated with different slides e.g lets say you have an audio of
2 minutes and you want to hear first half of that audio when slide
1 is playing and remaining half when slide 2 plays then you can
import that audio on slide 1 and open Audio Editor and move slide 2
marker at appropriate position on the audio waveform shown
there

Mono audio panning quirk

I'm having trouble with several mono audio clips(sound effects and a voice). I want them to sound like they're on the left or right of the on screen action so I pan them over. Only there's no sound if it's 100% left or right.
Let me be clear... some tracks die when max Left and one dies when max Right...
The audio is nothing special. Most of it is simple wav format stuff I found on the internet. One is a track I recorded.
My speakers work fine(I thought I was going deaf there for a while though) and I even tried my iPod head phones... to no avail. The audio still vanishes.
Here's where it gets strange. The audio even drops out when I export the sequence to a quicktime file. I read the stuff here about mixdown and did that... no luck... still dead.
What should I look for? What am I doing wrong? Is there some setting that's wrong in FCE HD? Or should I just give up and pan the clips more center and move on?
Thanks

Answer!
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300832
Apparently some 3rd party app or multimedia content item automatically reset my audio output setting to a higher rate(better quality) which I'm betting FCE doesn't support. Also one of the sliders for setting the output levels was completely off(0) and even when adjusting the system volume would not move. A quick reset(just dragged the slider to its partner) and all those pesky tracks that wouldn't pan now pan.
Read the apple support doc above for a more complete (and more technical) description of what's wrong and how to fix it... if you run into the same thing.

Keynote to iDVD: loss of audio in slide show

I have made a slide show on Keynote with music from iTunes. I export it to iDVD and it works fine from the computer while in iDVD. When I burn the disc, the music from the Keynote slideshow is missing although musc that I have added to menus does play. I want to use the Keynote slideshow and not transfer it to iMovie then iDVD because of loss of quality. I do not want to use the slideshow from iDVD because Keynote provides more opprtunities for effects in the slide show as well as clearer text. I think the problem has something to do with the fact that when I export, on my desktop is a copy of the slideshow AND a copy of the soundtrack.mov. How can I get them together? THANKS!!!

Thanks for the help but I faced the same problem as others with iMovie. Also I am trying to avoid the use of iMovie because the final product, a QT from iMovie, is not as clear visually as an import from Keynote - graphics are a lot muddier. I would have to agree that, as much as I LOVE Keynote, the inability to simply export a slide show with audio intact certainly is a problem with Keynote.
Also disappointed,
Jim

Newbe requests help with audio for slide-show on Premiere Elements 4.

I recently wrote you regarding a problem I was having with a slide show I was making on Premiere Elements 4 importing photo clips and music from PhotoShop Elements 9. Thank you for your help.
This very large slide show, some 200 clips that I have not resized is completed. I am now having many problems with the music audio I am adding to various sequences of the slide show. Specifically:the audio will not stay fixed on the places where I put it and end it. Working on the Timeline Usually the length of the audio is shorter than the ending of the photo clips where it must go. I click on the audio and stretch it and end it at the place I designate. However, the other end has moved also so now I am left with a gap where there is no audio at the beginning of the segment. Now in addition, the "Delete and Close Gap" does not work most of the time causing me to manually move the photo tiles which sometimes move when this happens. I have to move each one or two individually to the left to close the gap and many times this causes loss of one or two photo tiles or they are out of order or have increase in number (of the one I am moving).
The program has also shut down for the past 10 days causing me to lose a good deal of work and sometimes photo clips and sometimes I get many duplicates of the photo clips. All I do is edit mostly the same two segments doing this over and over because I can't proceed to importing any more music because I can't get the first segments correct. I have chatted with you people, Sony techs, Microsoft Techs and Canon Techs. The Sony techs suggested the program was at fault and I used the original installation disk and repaired the program. It has still shut down on me but not as much.
I got error messages on the photo-cap instructions page you suggessted otherwise I would show pictures of the above problems.
I tried to copy and/or cut and paste from the Timeline thinking I would start a new slide show in PhotoShop Elements 9 using the same photos in reverse. The program would not let me copy or paste. There is great difficulty in highlighting the photo tiles in Timeline because I have to shift click on each individual tile and there are too many tiles and it would take too long to get a whole segment copied. Maybe you know another way to do this?
I am at a stand-still now and I am quite despondent because I have been working on this slide-show for 3 months and it was a surprise for my daughter's 25th anniversary that was last Tuesday.
I do hope you have some good suggestions that will lelt me complete this Project and get it on a disk. I am not that technical so please be specific.
Thanks in advance.
Kathy

Here's the basic advice I'd give, based on my experience. Much depends, though, on your goals and the specifics of your computer system:
1) Resize all of your photos to no larger than 1000x750 pixels in size. This is VITAL if you want the program to maintain stability as you work. Also render often (by pressing the Enter key). When the render, the red lines above the clips on your timeline will turn green and the program will run much more efficiently.
2) Work on your large slideshow project in shorter segments. You've got over 15 minutes worth of slides. Try working on this slideshow in 5 minute segments, output each segment and then combined the finished videos.
3) Use only WAV audio as your music and audio for your slideshow.
4) When you add video, audio or stills to a parallel track on your timeline, hold down the Ctrl key to override the ripple function and your current clips will remain in place.
5) Maintain your computer by using a tool like the excellent, free, one-click Advanced System Care available at http://www.iobit.com/advancedsystemcareper.html
As for Delete and Close Gap, how it performs depends on whether you've selected Clear or Delete, whether you've pressed the Backspace key or the Delete key and if there is video or audio on a parallel track. (This is all covered in my books, by the way, if you're interested.)
Without knowing the specifics of your project and your situation, it's hard to give out more specific information -- but this advice should get you a long way toward completing your project!

Fitting audio to slides in Premiere elements

I am trying to create a slide show in PE 7. I added an audio clip. How do I make the audio extend till the end of the slide show?

You can slow down the audio but other than that there isn't any way to 'stretch' it out. You can add another piece of music after, or you could edit the music to make the clip longer.
The other option is to shorten the slideshow or to not show the images for quite so long.
The Photoshop Elements Slide Show Creator has a feature that will fit the slides to the music ;)
In Premiere Elements it is more of a manual process.

After adding audio to slide show, can we...

With the help of posts from this forum I got the audio up and running on a couple slide shows. I'd like refine a couple things, so has anybody done any of the following:
1) Can the pictures in the slide show fade in and fade out for better picture to picture transitions?
2) Can the play/pause button for the audio be changed? I'd like to add volume and maybe a percent indicator while the audio is loading.
3) Could the slide show start AFTER the audio is loaded? By the time the audio starts the slide show is usually on the 2nd slide.
4) Sometimes the audio will not loop. I think this depends on how the slide show window was closed. If the same page is reloaded again, the audio usually doesn't loop. Is there a way to re-initialize the slide show audio to guarantee it will loop each time.
5) Will the audio work if the end-user doesn't have quicktime on the computer?
I've been using this section of the website for beta testing -
http://www.pebbleplace.com/Personal/SanFrancisco001.html

It can be done, but you are asking for entirely different slideshow
With the help of posts from this forum I got the
audio up and running on a couple slide shows. I'd
like refine a couple things, so has anybody done any
of the following:
1) Can the pictures in the slide show fade in and
fade out for better picture to picture transitions?
Yes, but you will have to do extra works with javascript. There is a transition variable in slideshow javascript, but there is no control over the slide duration (it's fixed and there is now way to change it). This can cause some strange effects.
2) Can the play/pause button for the audio be
changed? I'd like to add volume and maybe a percent
indicator while the audio is loading.
Yes, change one of the arguments in QT_WriteOBJECT:
QTWriteOBJECT('SF_Soundtrack1.mov', '34', '16', '',
3) Could the slide show start AFTER the audio is
loaded? By the time the audio starts the slide show
is usually on the 2nd slide.
You can put a delay time to call QT_WriteOBJECT function, once again javascripts.
4) Sometimes the audio will not loop. I think this
depends on how the slide show window was closed. If
the same page is reloaded again, the audio usually
doesn't loop. Is there a way to re-initialize the
slide show audio to guarantee it will loop each
time.
5) Will the audio work if the end-user doesn't have
quicktime on the computer?
QT is preloaded in a mac, but not so for pcs; so QT needs to be installed on a pc.

IDVD Slideshow no audio / wrong slide show

Greeting, I have significant trouble with a iDVD project I have been working on. The main problem involves the slide shows. Don't be mistaken this is a large iDVD project, not much video input but 10 ish menus and 4 slide shows. I have experienced several problems with the slide shows. Previously one of the slide shows was duplicated in place of another slide show on a different menu. I was able to correct this by changing the order of some of the photos and re encoding the DVD. Currently Two of the slide shows have lost their audio content and several of the slides. I know that the missing audio on one of the slide shows is not caused by the format of the audio file as it is used on all but one of the menus.
I am going to try to re encode it yet again (probably the 6 or 7th time, iDVD tends to crash silently every third time) to see if it will encode correctly this time.
Any other suggestions about this?
Thanks!

However for one of the slide shows I did select the photos from iPhoto originally.
I wonder if that is affecting the performance...?
Here's an example of one of my slideshow projects that works fine. No iPhoto:
Ireland 2006
iDVD 6 Pass Through widescreen theme
696 images that are 2816x1584 pixels shot with Canon SD700 IS
15 640x480 movies from same digital camera transcoded to H.264 with QuickTime Pro.
Part 1 and Part 2 submenu buttons on main menu. All submenus are the Chapters option for this theme.
Part 1 leads to a submenu. That submenu has additional submenus and sub-submenus. Part 1 leads to 12 total submenus. These menus contain images and movies.
Part 2 leads to a submenu. That submenu has 5 submenus with only images.
I had to "remove" animation on all the sub-submenus and not include any music to get everything on a single-layer DVD-R. The Menu info was WAY over the 7:30; something like 14:00 after these adjustments. About 20 slideshows with music. Additional short slideshows with no music.
Started the rendering/encoding process at exactly 1:00:00 p.m.
Finished the Menu video rendering/encoding process at 3:53:30.
Finished the slides and transitions process at 5:37:30.
Process movies start 5:37:30, finished 6:27:45.
Burn process start 6:27:45.
Retrieving ends 6:28:30
Writing lead-in starts 6:28:30. Finished 6:31:55.
