Audio Will it be possible to create audio mixer groups one day?

According to https://forum.unity3d.com/threads/c...s-add-plugins-at-runtime.433380/#post-2801809, it appears that one cannot create audio mixer groups at run time. I've confirmed this based on the APIs that are available.

Will it be possible to create audio mixer groups under a specific mixer in the future? Maybe I'm not looking at the right place, and it can be done?

 

It seems (from my short exploration of the doc) that this is still not possible today (i.e. more than 4 years later...) I was trying to instiate a mixer at runtime, and either I didn't find how to do it properly, or it can't be done...

Any earthshaking / groundbreaking idea anyone?

 

It would be nice. I have dynamic audio sources that I wish to normalize, and the only way to normalize an individual audio source is to do so via an individual audio mixer group. So not only is it not possible to create an audio mixer group dynamically, but I cannot try the alternative -- apply a normalization filter to an audio source without relying on an audio mixer group.

The other alternative is to do various effects like normalization via C#. Or if I want to rely on audio mixer groups for that stuff, I would have to maintain a pool of used and free audio mixer groups but that sounds a tad complicated.

 

Hi, I would also like to create channels and groups during runtime, as well as adding effects and automatically exposing variables of the effects. Another useful feature would be if you could clone / copy existing audio channels (runtime or editor), as for now you have to set up every channel by hand.

Also the settings of all audio effects aren't copy-able from one effect to the other. Why not?
And please Unity, give direct access to all parameters in the mixer. Currently not all parameters are exposable. I would like to have a direct link with the output level of a channel (after and before processing effects).

 

+1 +1 +1 on this. Dynamically adding and removing mixer groups would be outstanding.

 

Looks like we need to wait another 4 years for next audio engine iteration

 

Make that another 4 years

 

And another 2 years

 

Any day now..
