Debugging Audio Through Console Commands in Unreal Engine
When debugging games, sometimes it’s helpful to be able to directly send your game or the editor commands while it’s still running. This is especially true for audio, if you are trying to trace a bug that only occurs in narrow or unknown circumstances. Console commands allow you to do this, often by either enabling or disabling specific functionality, or altering a significant parameter in real time.
How to Use the Console
The first thing to do is open the Command Console for Unreal Engine. The command console is tied to the ‘~’ key shortcut on most devices. In the case that pressing the tilde key does not open the command console, or you do not want to use the tilde key to open the console, its keyboard bindings can be changed within Project Settings->Engine->Input->Console Keys. It also frequently helps to have the Output Log visible on screen, which can be found in-engine at Window->Developer Tools->Output Log.
Once here, you can type commands into the console to have them affect your editor in real time. Most useful audio console commands involve setting a given console variable (often referred to as a CVar) to a desired value, through the syntax “ ”. For example, to debug sound mixes, one would set the CVar au.Debug.SoundMixes to true through entering the command “au.Debug.SoundMixes 1” into the console. You can also find more information about the usage of a given CVar through entering the command “ ?”.
Console commands and CVars that are audio specific begin with “au.”, with the exception of a handful of older functions. Because Unreal’s console supports auto-completion, you can quickly get a list of available commands by typing in “au.” to the console and searching through the suggestions.
Common Audio CVars and Use Cases
Log LogAudio Verbose and Log LogAudioMixer Verbose - These commands, when put into the console, allow you to set the verbosity of audio logs. This can be useful when a bug is present, and you are looking for clues as to what might be going wrong. Verbose can also be replaced with VeryVerbose, for even more audio logging. Some additional useful log categories to check might include LogAudioEditor and LogAudioDebug.
au.Debug.SoundMixes - This variable, when set to ‘1’, provides information on the currently active sound class mixes. As sound mixes are objects that can impact many sounds in the level at once, glitches with them can be hard to trace. By displaying information on sound mixes, it’s easy to tell if there are any unexpected sound mixes getting triggered, a sound mix failing to be pushed and popped off the sound mix modifiers list as expected, or multiple instances of the same mix being active simultaneously. This is often a good first step if attempting to debug situations such as a single class of sounds suddenly becoming inaudible.
au.DumpActiveSounds - This variable, when set to ‘1’, provides a list of all sounds currently playing. This can be useful for narrowing down possible sources of errors for issues that sound identical to the human ear, but have different causes. For example, if a sound can no longer be heard, dumping active sounds can clarify whether its an issue of a sound not being played, or if the sound is playing at an inaudibly low level. Similarly, it can help distinguish between loud sounds that are the result of volume modifiers set to unreasonable volumes, and loud sounds that are the result of many of the same sound playing together simultaneously, causing an equivalent perception of one very loud sound.
AudioMemReport - This function only requires the user to type in “AudioMemReport” (as opposed to requiring an additional ‘1’ to be typed), and will create a detailed document on the memory usage of active sound objects. This can be useful if tracking down unexpectedly large amounts of memory usage in the audio system, as well as being a useful tool for optimization in general.
