Putting Sounds Into Flash

    Okay, so right now I am completing a Flash CS3 assignment I have to do for school - I hate using Flash and have used like 1 other time in my life - this explains why I'm a bit of a newbie at it

    Anyway, I have completed the whole visual part of the movie - but I have to add talking to it.

    1) What program do I record the audio on / how do I do it?
    2) How do I import this audio to Flash?

    Sorry that this isn't about websites, but it is multimedia :)

    Next assignment is making websites so I have a feeling I will do well in that one :)

    If it's come to recording then there are lot of software that does support recording... and even they give you the facility too to get the recording in different format..

    But if you want to import the audio to flash it's simple, Open flash- Goto File>Import>import to liberary and then the audio file will reflect in your library, simply drag the audio in your time line.

    thanks

    I'm using Sony SOundforge to record my voice.

    in Flash,File-Import-to Library/stage

    then click the keyframe you want to insert your sound..select and you can see the drop down menu there..choose your sound file..

    else just drag your sound file from the library to the stage and make sure it is the right keyframe..:D

    Okay

    Does anyone know if Audacity saves as MP3's? Does the file have to be in MP3 format?

    Yes, there is an add-on that you can install to your Audacity software. The add-on is called Lame MP3 encoder.

    Check out this page: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/help/faq?s=install&item=lame-mp3

    The page has all info on how to download and install Lame MP3 Encoder so you can then save MP3 in Audacity.

    Concerning your other question about loading sound from flash, it's VERY simple. Import your MP3 or other sound file to your library. Create a new layer and throw the file that you imported from your library to anywhere on your stage. The flash will take care of the rest and all you have to do is CTRL+ENTER to test your movie.

    Good luck
