Question

Sound envelope bug when exporting on "event" mode

   Hello!

   I was experimenting here with different sounds inside the same .mp3 file. Everything was working fine on the timeline and the sound was exactly as i wanted, but when i create the .swf file (or try to export to a .mp3 or .mp4), the sound got all messed up, like if the sound envelope start was very different from the one i planned.
   I was able to make it sound right if i changed the soundSync to "stream" (the issue happened with the "event" sync option), but i wanted every sound on "event" mode because i need them to overlap. 
   Does anybody have any solution (different from creating several layers for each sound)?

   Thanks in advance!

    Stream is the way to go.

    why would you need more than 1 layer for any one sound?  you just need a layer for each sound.

    I could use more than 1 layer for each sound i want to overlap, let me explain: Imagine i want to play a car horn twice on the same layer. If i use the "stream" mode, i can only have 1 sound playing simultaneously, but if i use "event" i can have 2 or more of this sound simultaneously (depending on the duration of my sound). 
    One way to deal with this situation is to have another sound layer ("Sound Layer A" and "Sound Layer B") to be able to play 2 sounds simultaneously using "stream" sync, each sound should be on a different layer - but as i said that's not a solution that would be doable in my case.
    Thanks!

    there's some problem with your understanding of layers.  i'm not sure what that problem is, but again, you just need a (ie, one) layer for each sound (instance).

     

    i'm not sure this will help you (again, because i don't comprehend your misunderstanding), but:

     

    A. verbal info

    1. streaming sounds (in different layers) can overlap without causing a problem for either sound

    2. streaming sounds (in different layers) can play simultaneously without causing a problem for either sound

     

    B. pictorial info of same sound used to play two instances that overlap and stream
