Post MIDI On Event in Wwise and Unreal Engine

In this blog post, I show how to use Wwise MIDI functionality to trigger sample accurate fire weapon sounds. I also show how to use the AK::SoundEngine::PostMIDIOnEvent function in C++ to create a sample-accurate MIDI sequence. Additionally, I show how to set up a callback function from the audio engine to drive non-audio gameplay actions.

2D Audio Listener for Music and UI in Unreal Engine and Wwise

This blog post shows how to register a 2D (Non-Spatial Audio) listener and a Wwise Object to post Music and UI sounds that don’t require 3D positioning in the Game World. These Wwise objects are registered using an audio Manager and don’t get destroyed on level transitions, which means that audio playback won’t be interrupted.

Spatialization #1 in Unreal Engine and Wwise (Blueprints and C++)

This blog post shows you four different audio spatialization techniques in Unreal Engine 5 and Wwise. In this post I will show how to implement a 3D Sound, a Cone Attenuated Sound, a Multi-Position Sound, and a sound that follows the listener using an Spline Component.
