What it does
Implement game audio practice, bus/mixer architecture and gain in decibels, ducking (sidechain), adaptive/dynamic music via layering and re-sequencing, SFX variation, and beat synchronization. Engine-neutral. Use when the user mentions audio mixing, audio buses, adaptive/dynamic music, ducking, SFX variation, music layers, or syncing gameplay to the beat.
Audio design
Game audio is a mixing graph plus a music system. Route every sound through a
small set of buses so you can balance and process groups; make music react to
play through layering and re-sequencing rather than looping one track. This skill
teaches the portable practice; bind it to godot-audio, Unity's AudioMixer, or
middleware (FMOD/Wwise) for concrete APIs.
When to use
- Use to design a bus/mixer layout, set group volumes, and apply effects (reverb, compression, EQ) to groups of sounds.
- Use to duck music/ambience under dialogue or impacts (sidechain).
- Use to build adaptive music that responds to combat/exploration intensity.
- Use to add SFX variation (pitch/sample randomization) and sync events to a beat.
When not to use: for the engine's concrete audio nodes/streams, use
godot-audio or the engine's audio skill. Loading/streaming and asset import are
engine concerns. For UI sliders that drive bus volume, see the engine UI skill.
