Question: Where can I find the Wwise 2021.1 Beta Release Notes?
 

Answer:

Make sure you select the "SDK" package and a variant of the Windows platform when you install Wwise 2021.1 Beta with the Wwise Launcher. You will find links to the SDK Documentation in the "?" menu next to the Wwise installation; look for the "Release Notes" section in the CHM. Installing the "Offline Documentation" package will allow you to set the Wwise "Help -> Documentation Source" to "Offline", enabling the opening of the relevant Wwise Help page if you press F1 or a '?' button in the Wwise Authoring tool.
