NAudio

Extensions for Unity for very simple audio playing..

• in just a single line,
• for one shot or looped,
• single and multiple clip playing,
• with all custom parameters,
• pooling and
• spatializer support.

I literally can't live without this script

Quick Example

Play a clip at a position with random pitch:

audioClip.Play(transform.position, pitch: Random.Range(0.5f, 1.5f));

Play a random clip from an array at half volume:

audioClipsArray.Play(transform.position, volume: 0.5f);

Create a looping audio source, assign a clip and play it:

NAudio.CreateSource(transform, clip).Play();

Features

Single line methods

It takes a lot of lines to create an AudioSource or play a clip once with custom parameters from script in Unity, this reduces all those to a single line. Additionally it greatly extends and integrates AudioSource.PlayOneShot() into audioClip.Play().

See how simple it is to use in examples below.

Pooling

Pooling creates a few sources on start and saves them in a queue, reusing them every time Play() is called. This prevents source objects being created and destroyed every time, freeing GC.

Pooling is optional and can be disabled by commenting #define POOLING in NAudio.cs. Pool size is 20 by default, but can be changed by modifying POOL_SIZE const in NAudio.cs.

Spatializer integration

Whether you are using Unity native spatializer or Oculus spatializer (ONSP), there are defines in the NAudio.cs script that when uncommented will automatically prepare played sources for these spatializers.

Installation

NAudio.cs is the only script that will enable these extensions, you may even download it separately and put it in any folder you wish. The examples folder contains a few usage examples and is completely optional.
