VU meter web application

Question

I want a VU meter web app which can detect sound levels from my system's mic. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Why do you want it?

It could be done very easily in Flash, just a couple lines of code. Don't know of any offhand that are already written for you.

Here's a very simple example, written in AS2 (Actionscript 2)

Create a box on the stage with the instance name 'box_mc'. Place this code on the stage.

myMic = Microphone.get();

_root.onEnterFrame = function() {
    box_mc._yscale = myMic.activityLevel;
}

The box should get bigger and smaller depending on the sound level.
