The Wwise Project Adventure

In addition to the unique features within the blend container, Wwise ships with a suite of DSP Effects that can be used to modify content after it's been imported, enabling additional sound design possibilities from within the authoring application.

Available in the Property Editor of every audio object, and additionally within the Master-Mixer hierarchy, these effects can be added to modify sounds using fixed settings or dynamically at runtime using game parameters.

RTPC for effects can be found in the Effect Editor after clicking the Edit button for an enabled effect.
