[snippit] – generating a faux waveform in AS3
Working on a Flash project. I had to use the microphone to record some audio and generate a simple waveform so the user has some feedback that they are being heard. While not a true waveform, you can use the microphone activity level to generate something that works pretty well.

Here is the code to generate the above sample:
span style="color: #808080; font-style: italic;">// loopback is required so we can get the activity level and create the waveform. - so stupid
// turn off the volume for the loopback
And for the Waform class:
span style="color: #808080; font-style: italic;">// trim the levels so we don't keep eating up memory
// autoscale will find the highest volume and scale all lines in the display accordingly.
