You can define data for Mono, Stereo Left, and Stereo Right inputs, using the "Source Input Channels" and "Input Channel" widgets to select which input you want to edit. | ||
** '''Source Input Channels''' | ** '''Source Input Channels''' is used to choose whether to edit Mono or Stereo channels. | ||
** '''Input Channel''' | ** '''Input Channel''' is used to choose which channel to edit (i.e. if Source Input Channels is 2, for Stereo, then this lets you pick channel 0 for Left or 1 for Right). | ||
** '''(channel outputs and output percentages):''' Data for the currently selected input channel. L - Left, C - Center, R - Right, RL - Surround Left, RR - Surround Right, BL - Rear Surround Left, BR - Rear Surround Right, LFE - Low Frequence Effects. % of output is defined from 0 to 100 percent. | |||

Between the inner radius and outer radius volume falls off according to a five-point curve as defined below. | * '''Min Distance''' inner radius of the sound in game units.
