-# Adjusting Pitch and Volume
-
 The **[SoundEffect.Play](xref:Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Audio.SoundEffect.Play)** method allows you to specify the pitch and volume of a sound to play. However, after you call **[Play](xref:Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Audio.SoundEffect.Play)**, you cannot modify the sound. Using **[SoundEffectInstance](xref:Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Audio.SoundEffectInstance)** for a given **[SoundEffect](xref:Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Audio.SoundEffect)** allows you to change the **pitch** and **volume** of a sound at any time during playback.
 
 > [!NOTE]
 > The pitch of a sound changes the frequency of the sound, which in turn changes the speed of the sound. The volume of a sound changes the amplitude of the sound, which in turn changes the loudness of the sound.

In addition to the method described in [Playing a Sound](HowTo_PlayASound.md), declare a **[SoundEffectInstance](xref:Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Audio.SoundEffectInstance)**, we also add a **Sound Effect** field member. We also create two float fields for **pitch** and **volume** to store the pitch and volume of the sound effect and assign initial values to them.
