New hat-block: When [sound] reaches [time code]

CqCodes

I support! I’d suggest changing the wording on the hat block because it is a little in direct. Is it the pitch? Maybe then pan? Perhaps the volume? The part of the song? Maybe that can be a drop down as well!

Nice mockup.

I think we need to be able to set the time-code when an event is triggered to a lesser unit than seconds. I suggest that the input parameter is a time-code in the format MM:SS,mmm (minutes:seconds,milliseconds, where hours is optional), with the option to just enter seconds with decimals (SS,mmm, where SS can be more than 60 seconds).

I don't think we should implement hours, after all, there is a 10 MB limit for sounds.
I doubt that's going to happen anyway considering the sound lengths in the sound editor don't even do minutes.

You're right @samq64, the sound editor shows a song a minute and ten and a half seconds long as “70.5”. It would be consistent to have the “time-code” for this hat-block in the same format. So, seconds dot decimals.

Support. I don't see a workaround that new scratchers would learn easily. I think this would be intuitive.

Scratch On!

I AGREEE

I think this'd be quite useful for intro makers ;-; support!

As a person who makes rhythm games, I support this so much.

This will be really useful for intros and animations for no lag purposes

you could also add a when sounds pitch reaches<1.5>

What would that be for?

Hello! I find this a great idea, and it should certainly be added to Scratch.

No support, VERY easy workaround even an eight year old can memorize.

play sound [ v]
wait (...) secs
broadcast [ v]

You forgot about pitch.

Indeed, I think most Scratchers are aware of this “workaround”. An excellent alternative, when synchronization of sound and code is not paramount.

Cool!

The only workaround I can think of is

reset timer
play sound [Megalovania v] until done

With

set [Time v] to (join (join ([floor v] of ((timer) / (60))) [:]) ([floor v] of (timer)))

That also works with lag but not yet for pitch just yet!

Great idea! this would be a wonderful block for animation meme makers!
