Crescendo

So you want to have sound on your web site? A pretty neat plug in is called Crescendo. This is an ActiveX control which gives you good control over playing MIDI files.

Here is the code you could insert into your page. Be sure and replace the song (ccr-badmoon.mid) with your own file.

<OBJECT ID=Crescendo
     CLASSID="clsid:0FC6BF2B-E16A-11CF-AB2E-0080AD08A326" 
     ALIGN="CENTER" 
     HEIGHT=55
     WIDTH=200
     CODEBASE="activex.liveupdate.com/controls/cres.cab"> 
     <PARAM NAME="Song" VALUE="Sounds/ccr-badmoon.mid"> 
     <PARAM NAME="Nosave" VALUE="True"> 
     <PARAM NAME="Autostart" VALUE="true">
     <EMBED TYPE="music/crescendo" 
     SONG="Sounds/ccr-badmoon.mid" 
     PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.liveupdate.com/dl.html" 
     HEIGHT=55 
     WIDTH=200>
     </OBJECT><BR>

And here is what that looks like. Note that this requires ActiveX. Visit the Crescendo web site for more information about this plug-in.
