Dissonance does not generate any garbage anywhere in the audio pipeline - buffers are allocated up front and re-used for as long as possible. If you're seeing garbage generated please contact me with details (martin@placeholder-software.co.uk) and it will be fixed. The only place I am aware of that garbage may be generated is in some of our network integration packages. Some of the third party network systems make it impossible to send packets of data without generating garbage.

Hi emresadol, Sorry that things didn't go well for you with Dissonance :( > documentation is completely outdated The documentation is not out of date! As you can see from the log (https://github.com/Placeholder-Software/Dissonance/commits/master/) it has been updated multiple times in the last year. I'm not sure what gave that impression, if you found something incorrect in the documentation please contact me by email or Discord and I'll sort it out right away! The videos are quite old now and the Unity UI has changed a lot in that time. But I just rewatched both videos to check and the fundamentals which are explained remain the same, as far as I can see there's no misinformation there. > You can't do anything by following the documentation because it only tells you what you can do, not how to do it There is an entire section in the documentation titled "Introductory Tutorials" which includes step by step tutorials on basic things you're likely to want. For example here's the 2 step guide for creating a global chat room: https://placeholder-software.co.uk/dissonance/docs/Tutorials/Global-Chat-Room.html > Reddit and Discord are filled with hundreds of comments The subreddit receives roughly one post per month. Discord is slightly more active, usually people asking about how to do more advanced things not supported out of the box. > you don't get a response for days. I respond within a day (except on weekends, or if I happen to be on holiday). > Only the voice chat for two players works out of the box A global voice channel which supports an unlimited number of players requires adding just 2 components to the scene (broadcast trigger to send, receipt trigger to receive). Creating a team chat channel is nearly as simple - another pair of components per team and a script of your own to tell Dissonance which team the local player is in. > accomplishing all the other amazing things this asset is capable of requires near-expert-level knowledge Expert level knowledge is not required for all the standard things like global chat, team chat, proximity chat, 3D spatial audio etc. > Finding and fixing a single bug can take days because you constantly have to build your game to test it You can use the Unity multiplayer play mode package (https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.multiplayer.playmode@0.1/manual/index.html) to test multiplayer games without creating a single build. > There are no example scenes! There is an example scene included with every single one of the free network integration package we provide. This scene demonstrates global chat, proximity chat, positional audio and text chat.
