Adobe Flash (formerly Macromedia Flash) is used by web-developers to produce high-impact, animated Web sites. Pulsing musical tracks, sound effects, gorgeous animations, and innovative interfaces all converge using Flash.
It is easy to use our music in a Flash production. Quite a few of the construction kits in our music library already include pre-cut loops (ie Groovescapes, Cafe Metro, Chilled Out, Speed Demons, Dark Forces, Ultimate Warrior) which can be used to create loop tracks in Flash.
With other selections you will have to edit the tracks so that they loop just the way you’d like them. Full-Length tracks are several minutes long and most Flash music loops are relatively short, maybe 10-15 seconds. For best results pick a groove track (a track that has rhythm) and loop the groove into a 4 or 8 bar pattern. Most of our remixes and variations are chopped right at the loop point so they can be easily extended or looped.
Using digital editing software like Bias Peak (our in-house editor uses Bias Peak), Audacity, Goldwave, Amadeus, etc., you will be able to cut the track into a precise segment, perfect for looping in your Flash production.
UniqueTracks CD’s are sold as audio CD’s and as WAV digital files on CD-ROM, so if you want music for a FLASH production you may be better off purchasing the CD-ROM (digital files) version. You can also choose to download the music in MP3 or WAV format. We recommend purchasing the WAV version if you are working with FLASH. The MP3 spec puts a little bit of silence at the beginning and end of each audio track. This silence ruins any chance of looping the track seamlessly. It’s better to use WAVs and then downsample to the desired file size within the Flash software.
