Question:
How can I achieve a seamless audio transition on my web page when scrolling?

Product:
Wix Editor

What are you trying to achieve:
My web design includes three audio segments. When the web page scrolls to a specific position, the first audio segment plays. As the page scrolls further down, the previous audio segment stops and switches to the next one.

What have you already tried:
I used ChatGPT to write the code, but I don’t have a coding background, so I encountered many difficulties with the details during implementation.

Additional information:
I’m looking for the most detailed steps possible to implement this feature on my Wix website, including how to handle the code and any specific settings or configurations in Wix Editor.

Hello,

Creating a seamless audio transition on your Wix website as you scroll can be a great way to enhance the user experience. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you set up this feature:

Upload Your Audio Files: First, make sure your audio files are uploaded to your Wix site. You can do this by going to the ‘Media’ section and uploading your files there.
Add Audio Players: You’ll need to add Official Site audio players for each of your audio segments. Drag and drop the audio player elements onto your page from the ‘Add’ menu.
Set Up Triggers for Audio Play: You’ll need to use Wix Code (Velo) to trigger the audio to play when you scroll to a certain point on the page. Here’s a basic outline of the code you might use:

// Get a reference to your audio elements
const audio1 = $w('#audioPlayer1');
const audio2 = $w('#audioPlayer2');
const audio3 = $w('#audioPlayer3');

// Define the points at which each audio should play
const triggerPoints = {
  audio1: 100, // The scroll position (in pixels) to start playing audio1
  audio2: 500, // The scroll position to start playing audio2
  audio3: 900, // The scroll position to start playing audio3
};

// Add an event listener for the scroll event
$w.onReady(function () {
  $w(window).on('scroll', function () {
    let scrollPosition = $w(window).scrollY;

    // Play the first audio segment when the page scrolls to its position
    if (scrollPosition >= triggerPoints.audio1 && scrollPosition < triggerPoints.audio2) {
      audio1.play();
      audio2.pause();
      audio3.pause();
    }
    // Transition to the second audio segment
    else if (scrollPosition >= triggerPoints.audio2 && scrollPosition < triggerPoints.audio3) {
      audio1.pause();
      audio2.play();
      audio3.pause();
    }
    // Transition to the third audio segment
    else if (scrollPosition >= triggerPoints.audio3) {
      audio1.pause();
      audio2.pause();
      audio3.play();
    }
  });
});

Configure Your Audio Players: Make sure to set your audio players to not autoplay when the page loads. You can do this in the settings for each audio player element.

Test Your Page: After implementing the code, preview your page to test the audio transitions. Scroll through the page to ensure that each audio segment plays and stops at the correct points.

Publish Your Site: Once you’re satisfied with the functionality, publish your site to make the changes live.

I hope the information may helps you.
