Where is the metasounds documentation?

I can’t seem to find any detailed documentation on Metasounds. Does it exist yet? Some of the nodes are interesting but don’t seem to do quite what I expect. So far I’ve only been able to get things working by watching videos, which is always a bit frustrating…

Nothing in depth yet but several communications to say it’s being actively worked on. Any specific nodes, the community may be able to help !

OK, good to know. I’ll ask about the nodes separately. Out of interest, where are you seeing these communications? Would be nice to know what to listen to and watch to get updates

I know there was a UE5 EA document that detailed the nodes at that time, but I’ve lost the link and will look for it. It lacked currency anyway.

What is of use is this kb article that describes the changes since EA. This has some very valuable stuff in it:

I agree on videos, very difficult to learn that way.

The Epic Audio Dev team has been outstanding in helping out with individual questions here in the forums, so I agree with @SteveLane, posting the question here does bring Metasounds insight that documentation might not even cover (though there is no replacement for API docs with snippets).
