I'm currently working on a soundboard in Flash CS5 Actionscript 3.0, I am somewhat new to this, so I was wondering if anyone still knows how to set it so I can press the spacebar to stop all of the sounds currently playing. Would help me a lot and I would much appreciate a response. Thanks!

You would want to create an event listener on the keypress, and a corresponding callback function to stop the sounds.

But like other folks have pointed out, you'd be far better off building an equivalent in JavaScript unless there's a profoundly compelling reason to use Flash (you're maintaining a legacy application in an enterprise environment, etc).  Animate CC lets you output animation to native web techno

I don't mean to be flippant, Lester5E61, but why bother?

Flash Player is being permanently discontinued in a couple of weeks.  Without a player, nobody will be able to do anything with your Flash-based app.

Suggest you switch from outdated Flash CS5 to modern Animate CC.
