    Fmod had had this for decades.
    Unity is using fmod.

    Any roadmap plans to finally add having at least a second audio listener?

    While I understand why we might need that (decouple attenuation and spatialization) this is not something I see being added in the near future.

    If you want to build that yourself, I think the best way to go would be to keep spatialization handled naturally and workout some math to tweak the volumes based on the difference between the actual listener and your custom "VolumeListener".

    But I agree with what I suspect your feeling may be about this ;)
