Version
The Master-Mixer Console is a mixing console that groups a variety of bus properties into one view so that you can create the final mix of your game audio. When you are connected to a game, you can audition and then tweak the properties of your audio and motion as it is being played back in game in real time.
You can also monitor specific information related to the objects that are routed through the various busses in your project, including:
Meter - Shows the peak levels for all channels.
Duck - Indicates when a bus is ducked.
BG - Indicates that a bus is tied to the background music option.
Bypass - Indicates that the Bypass All option is selected for a particular bus.
Effect - Indicates the particular Effect or series of Effects that have been applied to the bus.
After you complete the routing for your project, you can create the final mix by connecting to your game and tweaking the relative properties in real time while the game is being played. You can use the Master-Mixer Console to easily modify the relative properties of each bus in your project. Relative properties are cumulative, which means that the values that you define will be added to the object property values.
While you are fine-tuning the mix, you can mute or solo one or more busses to help focus on one particular aspect of the sound or motion in your game or to troubleshoot specific problems.
