How to play Bamboo Wood — Place
Step by step, in game or from a command block
- Open the chat window in-game, or place a command block with the /playsound command.
- Type /playsound minecraft:block.bamboo_wood.place master @a to broadcast it to every player.
- To play it locally for yourself, swap @a for @s — for example, /playsound minecraft:block.bamboo_wood.place master @s ~ ~ ~ 1 1.
- Adjust volume and pitch with the optional trailing arguments: volume controls the falloff radius (1 = ~16 blocks); pitch ranges 0.5 to 2.0.
- Use a different source (music, weather, block, hostile, neutral, player, ambient, voice, record) when you want the listener's category slider to control its volume.
