Question: How to detect level of microphone.

How do I begin to script a LiveCode program to graphically display the sound level input from of a USB or analog microphone? What LiveCode command do I call upon to sense the level of a microphone signal input to either the Mac's USB port or microphone jack? What resources can best lead me on this quest to sense a microphones level of sound input?

Hi scottaandy,

For USB input, you'll need an external.

For files, you can use a stack created by Mark Smith,called AudioWaveForm. You could ask him on the mailing list.

Kind regards,

Mark

Mark,
Thanks for helping. I'm not sure what is meant by an external is needed. I'm thinking back to HyperCard days when XCMD and XFCN expanded it's capabilities.

Hi Scott,

We don't call them XCMDs and XFCNs anymore, we just call them externals now.

Kind regards,

Mark
