Aura Audio System - Lite v1.0

Bring your Unity audio environment to life with Aura Lite!

Tired of static audio zones? Aura Lite introduces dynamic, real-time raycast audio processing to create more immersive and believable soundscapes in your games. Based on the physics of sound propagation, Aura Lite calculates how sound should realistically behave based on the environment between the source and the listener.

Core Features (Aura Lite):

• 🔊 Dynamic Raycast Occlusion: Sound realistically muffles as objects block the direct path. Aura Lite calculates a gradual muffling effect based on the amount of obstruction detected via raycasting.
• 🏞️ Basic Environmental Echo: Senses the approximate size of the space around the listener using raycasts and applies simple, dynamic reverb effects via Unity's Audio Reverb Zone component. Hear the difference between open areas and enclosed rooms!
• ⚙️ 2D/3D Raycasting Mode: Choose between full spherical (3D) or horizontal-only (2D) raycasting for echo and occlusion calculations – perfect for optimizing performance or fitting top-down perspectives.
• 🏎️ Doppler Effect Control: Easily configure or disable Unity's built-in Doppler effect per `Aura Source` to prevent unwanted pitch shifts during rapid movement.
• 🖱️ Easy Setup & Custom Inspectors: Designed for ease of use. Add `AuraListener` to your listener, `AuraSource` to your sounds, configure layers, and you're ready! Intuitive custom inspectors guide you through the settings.
• ⚡ Performance Conscious: Includes basic controls (`Update Rate`, `Max Sources Per Frame`, `Echo Ray Count`, 2D/3D Mode) to balance fidelity and performance from the start.

Included:

• Full C# source code for Aura Lite.
• Demo scene showcasing basic occlusion and echo features.
• GitBook Documentation
