Multi-channel audio output from UE4 (beyond 7.1)

Is there any functionalilty in 4.15 for multi channel audio output?

I’m using a UFX+ for a total of 22 channels of audio output (trying to get started on a VR/audio installation)

I’ve been experimenting with using OSC messages to output data to Max/MSP but it would be fantastic to be able to take care of sound spatialisation within UE.

Hello Clovix. Did you get any answers to your question? I am also trying to find a workflow to do sound spatialization within UE4 for multichannel speaker output above 7.1 but I havent found any solution yet. Could you share any info on this topic?

Hi, @Daniel / @Clovix,

Did either of you manage to work out a way of doing this from Unreal?
Would be really interested to hear how if so.

Thanks
Louis

Bump. I’ve also noticed that surround sound doesn’t seem to work well with the spatialization. If you turn your back, do a 180 to a sound playing in the game, the audio will fade out almost completely.
