that's what I feared. I imagine that different microphones have different states of voltage and freqency at the same state.... that could cause a problem...

Hmm, well, Audacity seems to do that with no problem, I'm going to try to find a squeak script.

Re: advanced squeakers, please read!
I found something! Have you heard of Alice (programming language)? I read on the squeak website that is is programmed in Squeak Smalltalk.
It says it has pitch recognition. Maybe if it's open source...

Re: advanced squeakers, please read!
looking good! I just think that pitch would open up so many new areas for Scratch. Think about it, with pitch you can have projects that help you tune instruments, tell you if you are singing the right note or if you're sharp/flat, allow commands to be sent from one project to the other using notes to transfer data from speaker to mic, test if the speakers are on or loud enough, allow simple voice recognition, kareoke projects and more!

Re: advanced squeakers, please read!
if you mean the scratch board, no, period. The board doesn't send pitch. Probably from the internal microphone though, because there is the audio record function.

no, I didn't think the picoboard would work because it measures resistance.

You're just meaning a normal microphone aren't you?

Re: advanced squeakers, please read!
Wait, Squeak can record with the microphone, there's an audio recorder in Scratch because of it. I'll look for that in the code and see what I can get.

Doesn't that meeter just show the volume of the sound?

No, I mean it actually does record the sound.....so that means it knows the pitch.......
