  • Module 7: Activate spatial audio for your HoloLens 2 application

    • By the end of this module you will be able to:

    • import Mixed Reality Toolkit (MRTK)
    • import and enable the Microsoft Spatializer plugin and also to enable the spatial audio on your workstation.
    • spatialize the button interaction sounds and to use an audio clip to test spatialized button interaction.
    • spatialize audio from an video source Try out your app on a HoloLens 2 or in the Unity editor. You'll see and hear the video, and the audio from the video is spatialized.
    • enable and disable spatialization at run time, test out the app on a HoloLens 2 or in the Unity editor. In the app, you can now click the button to activate and deactivate spatialization of the audio.
