Sound?

**Kavity** · 12-18-2001

Hey, I've been trying to make a program that shows the frequency and plays it through your PC speaker until it gets to 200000 (humans can't hear passed that). Anyway.. I saw it during physics and thought it would be a cool program to make. Only I've run into a problem. Instead of the a sound it's more like a dull beeb. I want it so that I can do what the physics program did by playing the sound and test how high frequency you can here. I used dos.h's sound(); but that didn't work. If you could help out please that would be greatly appreciated.

You can use the Win32 API function PlaySound(). I'm not sure of the exact syntax, but it couldn't be that difficult to find on the internet.

Oh, by the way, it will probably be better to create the sound yourself. Just get a sound editor, I'm pretty sure they can do the kind of thing you are asking about.

can you play .wav or other sound files from a DOS console game coded in c++ ?

If I can find the petzold's CD I can show you how to do it...it shows how to create sounds in differnet DB based on a sinewave.
