When you convert your imported audio files, Wwise maintains an original version of the audio file that you can audition whenever you want. This original version has not been converted for platforms.

To play back original sounds:
In the Transport Control, click the Transport Play Options button
.In the Transport Play Options menu, select Play Originals.
Click the Play icon.
The original pre-converted sounds will play for the object in the Transport Control.

When you are creating the audio, music, and motion structures, you can decide to include or exclude certain objects from one or more platforms. For more information about working with platforms, refer to Excluding project elements from a platform. When you are playing back sounds, music, or motion objects, you may choose to play only the content that is in the current platform, or play all sounds, music, or motion objects loaded into the Transport Control.
To play back platform-specific content:
From the Platform Selector list on the toolbar, select the platform for the objects that you want to audition.
In the Transport Control, click the Transport Play Options button
.In the Transport Play Options menu, activate the Only Play Objects Included in Platform option.
Only the objects and Events in the current platform will be played in the Transport Control.

To play back all objects and Events, deactivate the Only Play Objects Included in Platform option and the Transport Play Options buttons will be orange. |
When you play back objects in the Transport Control, you have access to a range of properties, behaviors, and game syncs for the objects and this can help you simulate the in-game experience. When you are connected to the game, some game syncs, effects, and Events may affect the previously defined properties for objects as well. The property indicators in the Transport Control provide you with feedback about which behaviors or actions are still in effect during playback. To return objects to their previous settings, you can use the reset function.
| Note |
|---|---|
For each Event playback instance, the Event Action property value is added to the object's properties. When you are working with these Event Actions, you should reset these action properties before replaying the object to clear these cumulative properties and restore the default. To know more about how Event Actions affect object properties, refer to Working with Events. |
