View 1 RepliesI need to adjust the volume of this audio clip to make it blend with other system sounds (also played from My.Resources). I've tried looking this up in the help screens and found nothing. Is it possible to do?
.Computer.Audio.Play(My.Resources.POWER_TEST_COMPLETE, AudioPlayMode.Background)
Hey guys, I'm a new guy in VB.NET. I am proposing my final year project a title called music studio. My version of music studio is like real music video where we can play many sound at any time. For example, the application that I want to build can create many button and also add an audio along with it. And then, when we hit the 1st button, it play 1st audio. while 1st audio play, we also can hit 2nd button and 2nd audio is playing. for example, 1st audio is sound of man walking, and then 2nd audio is the sound of glass break. lastly 3rd sound sound of police siren play. Is it cool? so, my question is, is it possible the I can build an application by using VB.NET?

View 2 RepliesIs there any way to adjust audio volume directly using .net?
I can only find C++ coding which, sadly means nothing to me.
I would like to be able to record the current Audio Volume setting, change it (up or down), play a *.wav file, then return it to it's original level.
I've been digging around but I can't seem to find anyway to adjust the volume controls (the windows general ones) using VB .NET.Basically, I want to make a program that's always on top that allows me to changemute the microphone and the other volume values on a specific device - not necessarily the one set as default.
I got this weird feeling that I'm missing something quite simple but I simply could not find anything. I saw some media players and such but nothing similar to what I was looking for.
I'm trying to make a utility that will fade out the system volume (for when I fall asleep listening to my music). In XP and prior, controlling the system audio was very simple, however, in Vista and 7, I can't figure out how to do it. Because in Windows 7 each application has it's own volume control, lowering the volume doesn't affect the system overall - only the current app. Can anyone point me to a resource how to do this? Every forum posting that I've found on this topic is about XP, and doesn't work under newer versions of Windows.
View 2 RepliesI am trying to create a basic application that will allow me to open a .wav file and let me adjust the volume of the actual file: like raise the volume by 30% or 10% or some type of other measurement.
I'd like to then re-save the .wav file with the adjust volume.
Is there any way to adjust master audio volume directly using .net?
I can find C++ coding which, sadly means nothing to me. There's also quite a lot out there for VB4, 5 and 6 but I can't get any of that to relate to .net. Most of those seem to want to invoke the 'Slider' via the mouse which is not what I'm after.
I would like to be able to: -
Record the current Audio Volume setting,
Change it (up or down),
Play a *.wav file, then
Return it to it's original level.
I've had some success with 'AxWindowsMediaPlayer' but only with it's own increase / decrease functions. I can only get it to increase the volume as far as the main system volume is set, so if that's at zero I get no output at all. As for part one of my requirement, record the current level, I've got nowhere with that at all. I tried putting the one file I want to use in resources but can't find how to access it, I have had to put the file in a folder and call it from there, it works but it seems a little crude.

View 1 RepliesI have Visual Basic 2005. I want to be able to adjust the Master Volume programmatically. In the recent versions of Visual Basic it is much easier but in VB2005 it is a little more involved from what I have read on previous posts. Is there a way to adjust the volume in the code of a Visual Basic 2005 program?

My.Computer.Audio.Play(My.Resources.Music File, AudioPlayMode.BackgroundLoop)
Does anyone know how to get and set the system sound volume? I have tried every method I've found on the net and none of them work. I've tried the winmm.dll APIs with no luck. I've also tried waveOutGetVolume/waveOutSetVolume, which didn't work. I'm using Win 7, but need a solution that works on XP+.
Right now I use the VolumeUp keyboard event, but I need to be able to get the volume and set it to a specific level.
Maby ive been going about this the wrong way. Im attempting to change the system volume using VB.net. I dont want to use the mediaplayer stuff because i dont want that to be open the whole time. if someone could point me to a working API or something for changing system volume and getting the current volume id be great full! plus.
View 3 RepliesIve been wondering how to do this in Vb easly for awhile but Ive found no real solutions. So far everythign in Vb has a easy way to accomplish a goal from what I've seen. So I'm hoping someone will have a simple solution to this question. I'm making a simple game and I want background music to play in the background. An I want sound FX's to play with out stopping the background music from playing. Best thing I can think of would be a loop but every time I play a new sound, it stops the other sound. So how would I accomplish this task?

View 1 RepliesI am trying to write a countdown timer I finally succeeded with MSDN. I get to work whatever I wanted, but this drives me nuts: How can I read and set the volume control? I want, once my timer is run down to zero, read out the current system setting, then play a system sound using
Media.SystemSounds.Exclamation.Play()
Over time I like to ramp up the volume to 80% or until one clicks the Alarm off button (then stop the timer, no sound, and reset volume).
get data like the pitch and volume of the sound currently being "heard" through a microphone?
Do you know the little graph which the Windows 98/XP sound recorder used to show? It used to show the pitch and volume of the sound which was being recorded. Like I want to get the data from that.
Basically, I will start experimenting this stuff by showing the volume of the sound entering the microphone in a label. And maybe the pitch too.
how to check if
- A specific sound card is in use;
- A specific process is using any sound card;
- A sound card's current volume output

View 1 RepliesBecause My hard drive in my Lap Top is so small I have moved a bunch of files onto an external hard drive.
The Files I have included in the move are my Music files.
I then set my music directory to these files.
No problem except one time I disconnected to go some where with out my external drive.
At which time my computer set the music directory to Nothing ("") now when I click on the "Music" button nothing happens
when I right click on the button and select property's it is completely blank with out a way to reset my music.
So I decided to wright a short program to reset it.
I guess nobody else has had this problem because I could not find anything on that
To recreate the program
1.Create a windows Form Application
2.Add a Label and Label it "Label1"
3.Add two buttons "Button1" and "Button2"
4.Button1.Text = "Select Directory"
5.Button2.Text = "Set Directory"
6.Add a Folder Browser Dialog and name it "FolderBrowserDialog1"
7.Add this code
Dim Directory As String
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

soo i have some music that automaticly plays when i open aplication
how i stop this music from playing and that it continues playing from where it was stopped from, when the same button is pressed
I created another form that had a pic and two simple buttons, one button plays music the other will stop the music if played and take you back to the previous form. My problem lies in when the users uses the windows "x" button to flose the form, the music does not stop. I have searched and failed and light that could be shed would be awesome.Apparently I saved the wrong file and am not on my VB box so this code is incorrect. I basically added the music to the resources, dim'd it and activated it with a button. The other button not listed in this code was set to "portal.stop()" and "Me.Close()"
Public Class frmFail
Private Sub PictureBox1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles PictureBox1.Click
Me.Close()
