Hi there UE community,

First time using the answerhub. Wanted to find out if the engine has any baked in functionality for fetching the current audio output volume in decibels? (Not the value set for audio volume through the engine, but actual output volume from the track).

Any help would be much appreciated.

As far as I know there is no easy way at the moment.
If this is indeed for metering purpose, use an external application such as Orban’s. Otherwise you’ll have to code something yourself…
