Audio Animations

Audio Animations control sound playback, volume, pitch, and spatial properties — perfect for ambient audio, reactive sound effects, and dynamic audio mixing.

Overview​

Purpose: Create dynamic audio effects and transitions

Common Use Cases:

  • Volume Fades: Smooth volume transitions
  • Pitch Changes: Voice modulation, speed changes
  • Spatial Audio: 3D audio positioning
  • Audio Cues: Grouped audio effects
  • Sound Playback: Trigger audio clips

Animation Types​

Playback Animations​

  • Sound — Play audio clip
  • Play Sound — Sound playback control

Property Animations​

  • Pitch Tween — Pitch transition
  • Volume Tween — Volume transition
  • Audio Cue Group — Grouped audio cues
  • Spatial Audio Tween — Spatial audio control

Common Parameters​

  • Duration: 0.5–2.0s typical (quick sounds: instant, fades: 1.0–3.0s)
  • Easing: EaseInOutQuad for smooth volume fades, Linear for pitch changes
  • Loop Type: None (one-time), Loop for continuous audio (ambient loops)

Best Practices​

  • Use volume tweens for smooth audio transitions
  • Use pitch tweens for voice modulation effects
  • Use spatial audio for 3D positioning
  • Test audio animations with different audio sources
