What is Steam Audio?
A Benchmark in immersive audio solutions for games and VR. Get ready to deliver best-in-class spatialized audio experiences with Steam Audio.
Go Beyond HRTF
Use fully-featured spatial audio attuned to the physical attributes of your in-game geometry. Combine accurate occlusion, reflection, reverb and HRTF effects for natural sounding immersion.
Simplify spatial audio design
Easy to implement and deploy for all major audio engines, game engines and platforms. Tweak high level parameters to optimize immersion and performance quickly and easily.
Tailor Fidelity
Exercise full control over spatial effects - from fully automatic physical sound simulation, to unique handcrafted tuning and everything in-between.
Why Steam Audio?
Steam Audio delivers a full-featured audio solution that integrates environment and listener simulation. HRTF significantly improves immersion in VR; physics-based sound propagation completes aural immersion by consistently recreating how sound interacts with the virtual environment.
