Question AudioMixerSnapshot.TransitionTo() in WebGL - Does not work

Unity Version: 2020.3.029f1

Hello everyone,

Today I realized about an issue, that apparently the TransitionTo method does not work in the WebGL build. However, in my PC build it does.

I was wondering, if there is a possibility to use this function for WebGL builds or maybe there is an alternative way to proceed with the same functionality.

Many thanks for your help!

 

Any ideas?

 

I'm using AudioMixer snapshots in a WebGL project that uses 2020.3.27f1 and TransitionTo() work fine for me.
However, I don't use any filters on my groups and only change the volume, since many filters don't work in WebGL (as far as I know).

You can look up the supported audio capabilites of 2020.3 here:

Are you using Addressables by any chance? If so, look at this thread:

@xavier-ateo Many thanks for the reply. I guess I have to many filters, that are not supported in the WebGL Build. Basically I use the same appoach like you do. Creating snapshots and transitioning between them. In contrast I'm using Lowpass Simple and Pitch Shifter Filter within the snapshots for different audio channels.

 

No worries!
I'm faking the lowpass effect on my background music track like this:
I've exported the music track from my audio editing software a second time with a lowpass filter applied.
Then I play the regular version and the lowpass version at the same time and shift between the two of them using different volume levels. It's a very hacky solution (the user has to download more data, more loaded audio clips = more memory consumption, it's not very flexible), but it works for my use case

 

I like your solution! Clever!
It wouldn't have come to my mind to use a pre-edited audio file and shift between them. I will try it and many thanks for explanation!
