    Wwise (Wave Works Interactive Sound Engine) is Audiokinetic's software for interactive media and video games, available for free to non-commercial users[2][3] and under license for commercial video game developers. It features an audio authoring tool and a cross-platform sound engine.[4]

    Description

    [edit | edit source]

    The Wwise authoring application uses a graphical interface to centralize all aspects of audio creation. The functionality in this interface allows sound designers to:

    • Import audio files for use in video games
    • Apply audio plug-in effects
    • Mix in real-time
    • Define game states
    • Simulate audio environments
    • Manage sound integration
    • Apply the Windows Spatial Audio API, or Dolby Atmos.

    Wwise allows for on-the-fly audio authoring directly in game. Over a local network, users can create, audition, and tweak sound effects and subtle sound behaviors while the game is being played on another host.

    Wwise also includes the following components:

    • Cross-platform sound engine (Wwise Authoring)
    • Multichannel Creator (allows creation of multichannel audio)
    • Plug-in architecture for source, effect, and source control plug-ins, part of Wwise Launcher
    • SoundFrame API
    • Wave Viewer (allows for sampling of WAV audio files)
