Wwise Help

This view includes the filtering toolbar, which allows you to reduce the amount of information displayed in the view so you can focus on specific elements. Refer to Filtering in the profiling views for further details.

Unlink Filter: Allows you to disable synchronization between multiple filter views.

Text Filter: Allows you to filter content by specifying the text. The specified words are matched with the beginning of names or strings found in content. Each additional word refines the results. This match is not case sensitive. For advanced usage, refer to Using profiler filter expressions.

Object Filter: Allows you to filter content by specifying the Wwise object. The specified Wwise objects, from the project, are used to match content from the view. Additionally, object relations, such as parent-children relations and output bus relations, are also used to match content.

Browse Object Filter: Shows a project explorer browser to select an object to filter.

Mute/Solo Filtering: When enabled, the objects with Mute activated are removed from the results, and the objects with Solo activated are exclusively displayed.

Options: Displays additional actions.

Opens a search field where standard alphanumeric entries filter out unmatching elements from the view. Learn more in Using tables.

Click the Close icon to the left of the search icon to close the search field and remove the filter.

	Note
	The searches do not include elements in collapsed nodes of the List View, Query Editor, MIDI Keymap Editor, and Reference View.

Right-click the table header to open the Configure Columns dialog where you can specify which columns to display and their order. See Using tables.

Game Object

The name of the game object to which the object is associated.

Tip

Everywhere game objects are listed, such as in the Capture Log or the Voices and Voices Graph tabs of the Advanced Profiler, there is a specific shortcut menu with the following options: Mute Game Object: Mutes all objects under this game object. Unmute Game Object: Removes the mute on all objects under this game object. Solo Game Object: Implicitly mutes all objects under other game objects. Unsolo Game Object: Removes the implicit mute from all objects under other game objects. Search Game Object in Voice Graph: Opens the Voices Graph tab of the Advanced Profiler with its Filter set to the specified game object.

Event

The name of the Event which triggered the playing of the Target.

Target

The object targeted for playing by the Event. The playing of the target triggered the playing of the Wwise Object.

Wwise Object

The name of the object that is played by the sound engine.

Controls the Mute and Solo states for the object and shows the implicit mute and solo states for the object.

Muting an object silences this object for the current monitoring session. Soloing an object silences all the other objects in the project except this one.

A bold M or S indicates that the Mute or Solo state has been explicitly set for the object. A non-bold M or S with faded color indicates that the object's Mute or Solo state was implicitly set from another object's state.

Muting an object implicitly mutes the descendant objects.

Soloing an object implicitly mutes the sibling objects and implicitly solos the descendant and ancestor objects.

	Tip
	Hold the Ctrl key while clicking a solo button to exclusively solo the object for which the solo button is associated.

	Note
	Mute and Solo are designed to be used for monitoring purposes only and are not persisted in the project or stored in the SoundBanks.

Bus

The name of the bus through which the object is output.

Voice Volume

The level of the voice as defined in the project's hierarchy. This value includes the voice volume levels of all parent objects and busses within the hierarchy, States, RTPCs, and Set Voice Volume Actions.

Panning Volumes

The output level of the voice when it is mixed into each channel of the first mixing bus. This value strictly represents the per-channel spatialization gains.

Refer to Understanding Bus Configurations for interpreting the channel order

Game-Defined Auxiliary Send Volume

Offsets game-defined auxiliary send values, in decibels.

Total Volume

Volume of the voice plus the contributions from all mixing bus gains of the signal path, from the voice down to the master Audio Bus inclusively. In cases where there are multiple signal paths, such as what happens when using auxiliary sends, the largest value among all paths is taken. The Total Volume is evaluated against the Volume Threshold for virtual voices. It includes virtually all volume offsets in Wwise, except those that pertain to normalization and make-up gain (see Normalization / Make-Up Gain column below).

Normalization / Make-Up Gain

Volume gain applied to the audio source independently of the other logical volumes in Wwise. It results from the make-up gain property, loudness normalization, and localization volume offset (audio source make-up gain). It does not contribute to the Total Volume, and is thus ignored when evaluating the voice against the Volume Threshold. It is also transparent from the HDR, and not considered by the Voice Monitor .

Refer to HDR and the Wwise voice pipeline for more details.

Device

The medium of the sound's transition, such as Main for the main audio output of your system or background for the background music speakers available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.

Voice LPF

The LPF really applied on the main voice pipeline, this value includes the Base LPF, the Occlusion LPF and the cone-distance attenuation LPF.

Voice HPF

The HPF really applied on the main voice pipeline, this value includes the Base HPF, the Occlusion HPF and the cone-distance attenuation HPF.

Priority

The importance given to the object in relation to other objects within the same hierarchical structure.

Virtual

Indicates when the object is in the virtual voice list.

Over Limit

Indicates when the object is virtual because it is over the maximum number of instances allowed by one of its node limiters.
