Metasounds Halloween Edition: Part 3 - Interactive Theremin Deep Dive

Metasounds Halloween Edition: Interactive Theremin Deep Dive - Part 3
In this tutorial, we dive into the fascinating world of Metasounds in Unreal Engine 5, and I break down my virtual interactive Theremin prototype. The concept was to create a musical instrument that could be played by having your character walk around various location or “theremin strips” in the world. The concept is simple, but the results are anything but!
In this video, we look, in detail, at the Blueprint Scripting and logic that allows the theremin notes to be fed from the player characters location in the world.
Whether you're a seasoned developer or just starting out, this video will guide you through the essential steps and concepts needed to take your game's audio to the next level.
Join us on this musical journey as we explore the innovative possibilities that Unreal Engine 5 has to offer for game developers and sound designers. Don't miss out on this opportunity to level up your audio game!

Very cool concept, I may try something similar. I made a a theremin in the Sansar virtual world application using VR glasses and it was great fun and a lot of people loved playing with it.
