Optimization Summary

Being aware of the many minute details of a Wwise project early on in development can contribute to a positive workflow methodology. By making many small changes over time you can avoid the common pitfalls that occur towards the end of a project. Ideally when you reach milestones within the production that can benefit from optimization, there has already been some thought on how best to manage limited resources. Through a combination of understanding and conscious implementation, the tools to realize great sound for any game are within reach.
