Example 1: Playing Sound Files
- In the JES program area, type in the following main() function:
file = pickAFile()
sound = makeSound( file )
blockingPlay( sound )
- Save the file as sound1.py
- Click on Load Program
- In the interactive area, type
- When prompted for a sound file, select thisisatest.wav in the Sound Files folder.
- Make sure the speakers are on, but not too loud and listen to the sentence being played.
- Try one or two other sound files.
Part 3: Altering a sound file
- You will reduce the intensity of the sound by dividing all the samples by half
- Copy/Paste the program below in JES
- Read it to make sure you understand it.
# select a sound file
file = pickAFile()
sound = makeSound( file )
# play it
blockingPlay( sound )
# lower its intensity by half
for i in range( 1, getLength( sound ) ):
value = getSampleValueAt( sound, i ) # get the value of the i-th sample
setSampleValueAt( sound, i, value / 2 ) # set the sample to half its original value
# play new waveform back
blockingPlay( sound )
