# OvrAudio

### Description

This Node is used to manage the most common interactions with the Unity Audio Component.

It requires an [AudioSource](https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/AudioSource.html) to be set up, see [Unity Manual](https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/class-AudioSource.html) for more info.

Based on the action the AudioSource is required to perform, this component changes its behavior and requirements.

### Action Types

The OVER SDK provides several ways to interact with Unity AudioSource Component. A list can be found in [OvrAudioActionType](/over-sdk-manual/ovr-component-system-ancient-legacy/nodes/unity-components-interactors/ovraudio/ovraudioactiontype.md).

#### Play Clip At Point

Sets an AudioClip to the AudioSource and plays it at a given position in world space, defined by an [OvrVector3](/over-sdk-manual/ovr-component-system-ancient-legacy/nodes/variables/ovrnumericvariable/ovrvector3.md).

#### Play Scheduled

Plays the clip at a specific time, on the absolute time-line of the Audio system.

The AudioClip must be present in the AudioSource parameters.
