Color-code your objects

Now you'll take the organization of your project a step further by color-coding objects. While there are other approaches to color-coding, you're going to color-code based on the Actor-Mixer groupings you just created. This will make it easy to identify which category an object belongs to when you see it in any of the views throughout Wwise.

  1. Right-click the Items Actor-Mixer and click Set Color.

    A color selector opens.

  2. Click one of the green squares.

  3. Expand the Items Actor-Mixer.

    Notice that the green color you assigned to the parent object propagated to all of its children.

  4. For the remaining Actor-Mixers, set Magic to blue, Main Character to purple, and Monsters to red, and then collapse the Actor-Mixers.

Congratulations, you finished module 11! In this module, you started by grouping related objects under Actor-Mixers. Then you used those groupings to quickly color-code your objects, making them easy to recognize anywhere in Wwise.

Up next, Module 12: Understanding the Master Audio Bus where you'll get your first glimpse at mixing in Wwise.
