Audio in Unity

Audio in Unity 4- ‘Source(s)’ and ‘Listener’- ‘Play’, ‘Pause’, ‘Stop’- Some Effects (Echo etc)- No Visualisation- Can Get ‘Scattered’ Quickly- Scripting for Everything- Complicated to Extend

What We Needed To Improve- Visualisation of Audio Data- More Organisation of ‘Groups’- More Effects- Method for Custom Effects- Simpler workflow for Ducking, Fading, Transitions, States.- Scripting Access for Everything- Keep Existing Components
