Spatial Audio Temple

The Spatial Audio Temple is designed as a showcase demonstrating both our native spatialization approaches as well as a variety of technologies that take advantage of the support for 3rd party Spatialization Plugins available in the new Unreal Audio Engine. It is intended as a subtle and atmospheric experience; one that highlights the nuance possible with well resolved spatialization technology.

The Spatial Audio Temple is a repurposing of our Sun Temple Map, chosen for its realistic architecture and materials. An ambient soundscape was designed and implemented, bringing to life the gentle seaside temple. A solo viola improvisation was recorded to provide listeners with a focal sound. And a character controller was implemented with a first-person footstep system to provide the user with a listener-to-listener reference point for the soundscape.
