Mic input to Scale data in live time?

system · 2010-02-03T23:25:06.000Z

I'm looking to make a demo of using a mic's input data to alter the size/color of an object in realtime.

Is this even possible with Unity? Turn incoming audio data into color/scale info as the game goes.

Endgame would be towards an experimental demo for an adventure game that uses audio input for attacks/puzzles and other stuff.

Unfortunately there is no build-in support for that in Unity. This means you either need a plugin for it (Unity Pro) or use a separate program that communicate using TCP/IP connection. Haven't really read into it but maybe this is something useful.

There is a FMOD Plugin for Unity available in the forum.

If FMOD supports direct microphone input you should also be able to analyze volume, direction, etc. to modify your objects
