MetaSounds in UE5: From Miniguns to Music
August 17, 2021
Unreal Engine 5's MetaSounds represent a complete redesign of audio inside Unreal Engine and presents an amazing opportunity for all creators. Imagine thinking of audio in the same way as surface materials! Developers can leverage MetaSounds to add complexity and variation to their audio or even generate completely procedural systems with sample-accurate timing and control at the audio-buffer level.
Join Unreal Engine Evangelist Chris Murphy as he takes you from Miniguns to Music with MetaSounds in Unreal Engine 5! This explosive 30-minute development demonstration walks newcomers through some of the cool features of MetaSounds and how to go about implementing them in their own projects.
