Platforms

Platform

The name of the platforms, as defined in the Platform Manager, that are active in your project.

Base Platform

The name of the SDK used by this platform.

Volume Threshold

The default volume level below which a voice will be managed by behaviors defined on the Advanced Settings tab of the Property Editor. For example, voices that fall below the volume threshold can do any of the following:

Default value: -80
Range: -200 to 0
Units: dB

This value can be overridden by using the Wwise SDK API.

	Note
	The default slider range is from -96 to 0. You can go over those limits by entering the value directly, or by rolling the mouse while the focus is on the edit control.

Max Voice Instances

The maximum number of simultaneous voices that can be active at the same time in the entire project. Virtual voices do not count as active voices. Over this limit, voices with the lowest priority will adopt their virtual behavior. If priorities are equal, older sounds will be considered to have a higher priority. Each sound can override its own virtual behavior, which can be:

	Note
	The Maximum number of voice instance may not be respected if the virtual behavior on some sounds is set to Continue to play. To have this limit respected, playing voices need to have their virtual behavior set to Kill voice or Send to Virtual voice.

This value can be overridden by using the Wwise SDK API.
