Qt Spatial Audio▲
Qt Spatial Audio is an add-on module that provides a rich set of QML types and C++ classes to implement sound fields in 3D space. It contains an easy to use API for positing a listener in space, adding localized sound sources around the listener and emulating virtual rooms with reverb and reflections.
Getting started▲
If you are new to Qt Spatial Audio, the QML types can be imported into an application using the following statement in your .qml file.
import QtQuick3D.SpatialAudioTo link against the C++ libraries, add the following to your project's CMakeLists.txt file. Substitute my_project with the name of your project.
find_package(Qt6 REQUIRED COMPONENTS SpatialAudio)
target_link_libraries(my_project PRIVATE Qt6::SpatialAudio)Spatial Audio Overview provides a more detailed description about how to use the different classes listed below.
