Where to Find Sound Clips
If you’re looking for interesting sounds to
use in your Flash movie, you can use the free
sound files available from Adobe. Flash CS6
Professional comes preloaded with dozens of
useful sounds that you can access by choos-
ing Window > Common Libraries > Sounds.
An external library (a library that is not con-
nected to the current project) appears.
Simply drag one of the sound files from the
external library onto your Stage. The sound
will appear in your own Library panel.
Placing sounds on the timeline
You can place a sound at any keyframe along the Timeline, and Flash will play that
sound when the playhead reaches the keyframe. You’ll place a sound on the very
first keyframe to play as the movie starts to provide a pleasant audio introduction
and set the mood.
1 Select the videos layer on the Timeline.
2 Insert a new layer and rename it sounds.
3 Select the first keyframe of the sounds layer.
