Very nice Tmoore.
But the samples were only for online purposes (poor quality).
I can help you with some professional HQ samples if you wanna make some music.
p.s.
You have a nice site.What about your link section ?
:)

The recording was an impulse. I liked the way the bass boomed. The sound is simply a 300.00 fender guitar from mexico, plugged into a 29 dollar sound card and recorded on an old version of cakewalk. I could not tell you what key it is even in. I do have the original wave file. If you know how to make the sound better it would help me, but I do not want to buy a lot of equipment. (I do not even know how the set the levels). In Februray I plan on buying a new computer so I could start there. I would like to make loops that are not choppy and that do not take 5 minutes to load.

As for the site, I bought MX and have been learning it so I kinda have not been doing anything in Koolmoves at the moment. I will finish the link site this weekend.

I have an old project made in Flash 5 called "Flash Synthesizer".
If I'll get some spare time (next month),I'll rebuild this project using KoolMoves.
With this stuff you'll be able to compose a 3 minutes - 16 tracks - HiFi melody and less than 500KB (!).
Just remind me next year ...
cheers

Ok thank you. I will take you up on it. I also have flash 5 if you do not want to rewrite.

I want to rewrite it because V6 has some powerfull new commands.
Also,if BOB can implement a Movie-Library for KM,a "KM Synthesizer" would be great for all of us ! ;)

Remus,

When you talk about a movie library, what exactly is it you are discussing?

Is it like a component? What makes it different from a loading a swf into a clip, or inserting a fun file?

Tmoore,

(Can we use your first name?) - that is great music.

A "Movie-Library" is a powerfull feature for Flash (and difficult to implement it too).
Is like a "bag" with objects (shapes,movies,sounds,etc).
You can ATTACH (import) objects from the "bag" without increasing the SWF size !!! (impossible in KM at this time).
I need this feature BADLY !

:mrpimp:

Wooo. Don't we all!

* Has visions of a 30 byte empty swf loading instantly and competing with MS/Star office in functionality * :)

Okay, without increasing swf size - there has to be a trade-off surely, somewhere or the other? The parent file size doesn't increase, but there is a hidden overhead?

Is it like a flash-type dll, or an object library?

(Sorry to bug you with all these Qs.)

NO tricks at all,it's real !
Use KM and do the following:
- create a child-movie with a lot of graphic keyframes.
- export the SWF and check the file size.
- with "copy & paste", create another child-movie.
- check the SWF size again: allmost DOUBLED !
Using a Movie-Library the size is the SAME !
This is the huge difference.
Also: you'll be able to ATTACH "invisible" Objects.
and much more ...

I wasn't clear enough.Let's try again:

1) without Movie-Library,after "copy & paste" you'll get TWO movies
and TWO place assignments (double size for the selected object)
2) with Movie-Library,after "copy & paste" you'll get ONE movie
and TWO place assignments (the same size for the SWF).
Using KoolMoves,"copy & paste" in different keyframes generate the
same SWF size,but "copy & paste" in the same keyframe generate double
size for the selected object...and this is wrong !
The objects from the Movie-Library are exported in the SWF only if
you assign a name for the desired object.After that,you can use the
object several times (in the same keyframe or not) without increasing
the SWF size.
Also,a powerfull feature is ATTACH command:
mov.attachMovie("name","newname",depth);
snd.attachSound("name");
These commands are worthless without a Movie-Library.
a lot of things to do for BOB ...

lol. :doughnut: I think I am totally confused. I am even confused about whether I am confused .. :p

So in a sense, it makes the library movie a super-symbol, ie, it only stores the movie reference in one place in the finished swf, all in-frame instances are pointers to this - even multiple instances in one frame?

If so, the player works harder? For example, where there is, say, two instances of the movie in one frame, one "normal" and one rotated and shrunk, the player understands this, and handles the situation?

Anyhow, one thing I do know is that I am wasting your time with these Qs, seeing as it is all academic at the mo. But thanks for answering. :)

NO NO ... I was talking about the SWF file ONLY !
After the file is launched,the situation is different.
In your example (two objects,the second is rotated),in the SWF (Library featured) there's only the "content" of the first object and 2 assignments: for the "normal" one and for the second rotated.
The "real-time" process occures in your system RAM (not in the SWF).
cheers

Okay. I think I have a faint glimmer of what is going on.

Thanks, Remus. :)

I've no time for Flash these days,but I had few hours for Music lovers (and KM fans).
A cool miscelaneous example about sound objects and sliders.
3 tracks per melody at this time.
FUN file available (for the main program only) !

http://necromanthus.com/KoolMoves/SoundTracks.html
(can be accessed from my KoolMoves section too)

notes:
This is the MIXER part from my "Flash-Synthesizer".
All music tracks are Flash-MX featured
(small files,nice quality,MP3 & Z-lib compression).

If you have some intresting ideas,just give me a sign.
BOB,do you wanna become a DJ this year ? ... ha ha ha
enjoy.

This download tells me that I do not have the latest version of koolmoves. Is it v3.5?

It is 3.60

Hello TIM.
Yes,BOB is right: v3.6 only !
Check again because you'll get the first 4 tracks melody and some improvements.
I'm waiting for your creations.
:mrpimp:

A remarkable player and great work too! Thanks for posting it.
