AudioCue - AudioClip Editor & Player

Create, edit, and play reusable audio cues with AudioCue.


AudioCue provides a focused audio authoring and playback workflow for sound effects, interactions, ambient audio, UI sounds, and other reusable audio events. Group multiple AudioClips into a single cue, configure variant selection, and control playback from one reusable asset.


Use the built-in waveform editor to adjust per-variant trim ranges, configure fade-in and fade-out, preview the result, and export edited segments as WAV files. Each cue can also define spatial audio, mixer routing, timing, concurrency, and nondestructive equalization.


Runtime playback is handled by a pooled AudioManager with positioned and Transform-attached audio, voice limits, retrigger cooldowns, bounded overflow, and priority-based voice stealing. Ready-to-use player, trigger-volume, and pointer interaction components cover common use cases.
