How to apply sound distortion in actionscript-3?

Question

Let's say the sound input is either an embedded mp3 file or the microphone.

Is there an example of how to make it sound demonic and creepy, or like a radio transmission from the battlefield in actionscript-3 dynamically on runtime.

Answer 1

As far as I know, you simply can't with the microphone, unless you first send it to a server.

With an audio file (embedded or not), you can distort it by playing with its bytes (ref), but its not at all a trivial task (I'm not aware of any library for "easy" sound processing).
