Help Needed Playing Notes at Players

Ok, so I recently just learnt how to use the scheduler, and with the knowledge I had gained I moved on to making a doorbell plugin. The plugin works so that they type /doorbell, it does some code (plays not and prints message) then moves on to the scheduler, waits three seconds and performs the same type of code. Whilst the scheduler is fine, I am having problems with playing the note. I used the format Player.playNote() like so:

Code:java

player.playNote(location, Instrument.PIANO, 10);
//after the delay...
player.playNote(location, Instrument.PIANO, 7);

The whole chunk of code it goes through is:

Code:Java

        else if(commandLabel.equalsIgnoreCase("doorbell")){
 
            Player player = (Player) theSender;
            player.sendMessage(ChatColor.YELLOW + "" + ChatColor.BOLD + "Anyone home?");
 
            Player location = (Player) player.getLocation();
 
            player.playNote(location, Instrument.PIANO, 10);
 
            this.getServer().getScheduler().scheduleSyncDelayedTask(this, new Runnable() {
                public void run() {
                    for(Player online : Bukkit.getServer().getOnlinePlayers()){
                        player.playNote(location, Instrument.PIANO, 7);
                    }
                }
            }, 10L);
        }

Eclipse tells me that playNote is not applicable with Player, but I am not really sure how to fix this?

Thanks for your time,
Ben

Oh nevermind, a friend helped me out!

I was using the playNote method incorrect.

Code:java

 player.playNote(location, Instrument.PIANO, 7);

should have been...

Code:java

 player.playNote(player.getLocation(), Instrument.PIANO, Note.flat(1, Tone.B));

You are trying to cast player.getLocation() to a Player, while it isn't a player. Use
Location location = player.getLocation(); instead, or just change the location in playSound to player.getLocation();.
To make different sounds use byte like this:

Code:java

player.playNote(player.getLocation(), (byte) 4, (byte) 7);
 

the (byte) 4 is the piano sound, you can change (byte) 7 is how high / low the sound is, in your case use 7 and 10

I swapped over to your method, and it seems simple enough, however I have to lines: one with the pitch at 10 and the other with the pitch at 7. They sound exactly the same when played, even with the delays.
