The Volumetric Sounds Beta is Here

Maybe you could have multiple parts with sound instances in them with the max distance set to 0, so that only people inside can hear the sounds and so that it doesn’t sound like it’s coming from any direction. You could also try using something like a SpecialMesh to bypass size limits, although I’m not sure if this supports it.

I hope they increase the 2048 stud limit one day so that we don’t have to resort to band-aid fixes like this.

I’m still waiting for volumetric echo to be possible. The current one isn’t really echo, it just repeats the noise.

This is great but, it’d be better if it wasn’t being destroyed by roblox’s new audio update.

The fact that this came out right before the audio privacy update kinda stings, because this genuinely seems like a really cool way to set atmosphere in a place.

I’ve been looking forward to this for quite awhile, what a wonderful update.

Oh this is great; so much potential! I can’t wait to have a mess around with this

What’s the point of Volumetric sounds if all I could use is audio used by ROBLOX or verified non-copyright audios?

Really only useful for a week, which I find horrid and useless.

This is only useful for a week. Ah yes, EVERYONE’s music taste is just instrumental music. Would have been a good update, if there wasn’t a big deal-breaker.

Sad there’s nothing to use this with.

Yes this is very much definitely needed and its going to be the next level. I hope many new features that is actually good with the faster building and highly detailed with less parts and less lags makes developers very easier for recreating irl into the digital world. Will see how it goes and i expect better.

Aren’t you thinking of reverb?

Still, it doesn’t achieve the same effect.

Is there any word on when this feature will arrive? I’d be dead useful for a game I’m working on

Could this be live in the main Roblox engine? I’d like to use it for my games now and it works great in studio.
