Investigating FAudioParameter

AudioComponent SetWaveParameter with PlayQuantized

Today I am investigating the block of code in AudioComponent::PlayInternal mentioned above where SoundParams are being set. AudioComponent->PlayInternal() This block (AudioComponent.cpp line 856) starts by pulling DefaultParameters to a local array: TArray<FAudioParameter> SoundParams = DefaultParameters; The AudioComponent header file has interesting comments about this: /** Array of parameters for this AudioComponent.

Continued my forum thread that nobody is engaging with, because SEO might give benefit to someone in the future.

Point is, I have a couple candidates to experiment with:

1. Have my AudioCuePlayer class implement UActorSoundParameterInterface, see if this sets the value correctly.
2. Attempt to wrap my SoundWave in a FAudioParameter and stuff it in AudioComponents.DefaultParameters
3. Or do the same and stuff it in InstanceParameters
4. Hell see if I can do both, or all three.

This will be tomorrows big push. Get one or more of these idea’s instrumented and see if it fixes the clipping issue.
