Apparently now a discussion about making new sound effects

funtime_foxy101 · March 29, 2021, 9:30pm

When I first saw the block I thought it meant to crop sounds, but I tried using it and it didn't really work.

Can somebody tell me how to use this block to crop sounds? If it doesn't crop sounds, then what does it do?

It tells you how long (in number of samples) the sound is! Reports a number, in other words.

If you want a lot of tools to do with sounds, then you can visit my project

It has a lot of sound editing blocks. You can edit them to see how they work.

funtime_foxy101 · March 30, 2021, 8:25am

Thanks. Nice work btw.
Does it include a block that can make the sound, sound robotic?

silver_star · March 30, 2021, 8:30am

Nobody has that! And although Scratch claims to, it doesn't really.
All the blocks are under sounds, so you can see for yourself what it has.
It supports both single- and multi-channel sounds.

funtime_foxy101 · March 30, 2021, 8:33am

Oh, ok.

I'm honestly surprised nobody(at least i think nobody) has found out how to make a sound robotic in snap lol

silver_star · March 30, 2021, 8:34am

Wdym by robotic?

funtime_foxy101 · March 30, 2021, 8:37am

like make the sound sound robotic like how you can in the sound editor in scratch

silver_star · March 30, 2021, 8:39am

I made a new echo block (Like Scratch doesn't have) but my headphones are charging so you'll have to test it out for me.

funtime_foxy101 · March 30, 2021, 8:43am

Aye. I have tested it out and ngl it is very fast o.O and loud too

silver_star · March 30, 2021, 8:51am

I tested it now and t seems to work.

funtime_foxy101 · March 30, 2021, 8:59am

Hm. It might need to be at it's normal speed in order for it to be more realistic. For me, it is very fast to the point I cannot tell what they are even saying.

silver_star · March 30, 2021, 9:02am

It's not extra fast for me

funtime_foxy101 · March 30, 2021, 9:03am

huh strange-

ego-lay_atman-bay · March 31, 2021, 2:38am

I tested out the record block, and it doesn't play the recorded sound a whole lot faster than I recorded it. btw, I am using my computer audio as a mic.

also, the echo block does speed up the sound

edit: it's the sounds at once block.

funtime_foxy101 · March 31, 2021, 7:21am

I did not understand half of what you said, sorry.

silver_star · March 31, 2021, 7:33am

Oh yeah, that does speed it up. You'd probably want to use the daycored block in conjunction with it.

funtime_foxy101 · March 31, 2021, 7:39am

Ya mean this?

It didn't really work, it just made it even faster. o.o

EDIT: It does work, but you have to make the (20%) higher. and if you make it 80% it doesn't really sound like it's echo-y. If anything, it sounds like I just created my own sound lol, it's almost like nightcored, but it sounds slowed at the same time. Sadly, I was going to remix it to show you how it sounded, but it was higher than 10mb.

Here's what i did. It sounds really cool.

funtime_foxy101 · March 31, 2021, 9:50am

So, what should we call the new sound effect that was supposed to be a echo effect but sounds more like a really old radio blasting in another room? In other words, what should we call

this sound effect? Will you make a new custom block that makes the sounds sound like this?

Great, now I'm asking too many questions again lol

ego-lay_atman-bay · March 31, 2021, 4:44pm

when I tried the play sounds at the same time, it just played the first sound instead of both. When I took the new sound block out, then tried it, it worked, but since I was playing the sound directly from a list, it didn't play at the right frequency.

You should do something like this.

I have not tested this script with two sounds with different frequencies, but I assume it'll work.
