27. Choose Control > Test Movie.

Now you can hear the sound as well as can adjust the volume with the help of volume slider.

The current playing sound will be the default sound. We are going to create 2 sound options including the default one. For that we need to create 2 buttons for 2 different sounds.

1. Go back into Scene 1

2. Insert a new layer above Slider layer and rename it as 'Track 1 Button'

3. Create an object as shown in the image and convert it into a Graphic named as 'button graphic'

4. Select the button graphic and choose Insert > Convert to Symbol to convert it into a Button. Name it as 'track1 button'.

5. Double click the track1 button to go inside it or choose Edit > Edit in Place

6. Insert a new layer over the existing layer and with the help of Text tool type a number as '01'

7. Choose Window > Library > track1 button

8. Right click and select Duplicate to make same copy of track1 button. Rename the duplicated button as track2 button

9. Double click the track2 button in the Library to go inside it and make necessary changes. e.g.. Change the number from 01 to 02.

10. In Scene 1, place track 2 button on a new layer above Track 1 Button layer. Rename the newly added layer as 'Track 2 Button'.

11. Select track1 button on the stage and choose Window > Actions

12. In the Actions panel type the following actions

13. Select track2 button on the stage.

14. In the Actions panel type the following actions

// snd2 = new Sound();
This action creates a new Sound object called as 'snd2'

// snd2.attachSound("loop2");
This action attaches the sound specified in 'loop2' (identifier) parameter to the specified Sound object i.e. snd2

// snd2.start(0, 999999);
This action starts playing the attached sound from the beginning. '999999' specifies the number of times the sound should play consecutively.

15. Choose Control > Test Movie to see how the sound can be changed with the help of track1 and track2 buttons.

Now we want a button through which the sound can be stopped or played at any time.

1. Insert a new layer above Track 2 Button layer and rename it as 'On-Off Button'

2. Create a sound icon. Here we have imported (Choose File > Import) a speaker icon image (sound.png).

3. Place the icon below the track2 button on the stage.

4. Choose Insert > Convert to Symbol and convert the icon into a Graphic and name it as 'speaker'.
