Overview

Summary

Audio is one of the most overlooked aspects of interactive development, but it’s also one of the first things that can disrupt a user’s immersion if it’s done poorly — or worse, completely forgotten about. 
In this mission, you will learn how to implement audio effects in Unity by creating a soundscape for an outdoor scene. You’ll create ambient audio effects, trigger sounds with events, and modify sounds with special effects.
By the end of this mission, you’ll be able to:
Implement audio in Unity.
Produce customized results by correctly configuring audio in a scene.
Create interactive experiences by synthesizing audio experience design principles.
Refine existing audio in a Unity project.
Solve accessibility challenges in an audio design.
About this learning experience
This project is a standalone learning experience which uses content developed for the Creative Core pathway. You’ll find everything you need to get started with audio in Unity, but you may also notice references to the guided learning journey for that pathway.
If you decide that you’d like to complete the whole Creative Core pathway, you can start at any time. You’ll receive credit for any tutorials that you have already completed when you do.

Submission Gallery

Hallway Challenge

Added two ambient audio to the scene. Both doors and the headlights above the read and blue portraits also have audio. The camera has audio to simulate footsteps when moving.

Sound Challenge

Added sound to campfire, red and blue canvas, cub and both doors. For blue canvas I used sound captured in a yard with a phone. Rest of the sounds are from Asset Store.

Audio Studio

It is a tutorial project of Creative-Core-Audio path. There are couple of sounds such as bird, door-knock, sea, wood-fire, and classical music. Credits/Sound -> straget for Birds in the forest.wav

A Summer Night

This was a clear summer midnight. We sat by a craking firepit . The tap was leaking water . Occasionally a plane flew overhead. I could hear the chirping of cicadas clearly. But the most annoying thing was the mosquitoes, because you did't know when they would bit you.

The Bunker Soundscape

My submission for "Challenge: Your own soundscape." Use WASD to move the camera and hold the right mouse button to turn the camera. All the props used in my submission I downloaded from the Unity Asset Store for free. All sound effects used in my submission I downloaded for free from freesound.org and opengameart.org

Sound challenge

I added the sound for the fire, a broken light, children playing, and a nature sound, also i added Audio Reverb Zone to the room .
