Set up audio DSP

Project Acoustics includes audio runtime HRTF-based DSP that integrates into the Unity audio engine spatializer framework. To enable the Project Acoustics DSP, go to Edit > Project Settings > Audio to open the Unity audio settings. Select Project Acoustics as the Spatializer Plugin for your project.

Next, open the Audio Mixer (Window > Audio Mixer). Make sure that you have at least one mixer, with one group. If you don't have one, select the + button to the right of Mixers. Right-click the bottom of the channel strip in the effects section, and add the Project Acoustics Mixer effect. Only one Project Acoustics mixer is supported at a time.

Enable acoustics on sound sources

Create an audio source: Select the Spatialize check box in the AudioSource inspector panel. Make sure that Spatial Blend is set to full 3D.

Enable acoustic design

Attach the AcousticsAdjust script to a sound source in your scene to enable additional source design parameters: Select Add Component and choose Scripts > Acoustics Adjust.
