How to Set Up and Use Wwise
Wwise-MCP is a Model Context Protocol server that bridges AI assistants like Claude and Cursor directly to the Wwise Authoring application via the Wwise Authoring API (WAAPI). It exposes 40+ tools covering hierarchy management, audio configuration, event authoring, game object control, soundbank management, runtime event posting, effects, and profiler capture — letting sound designers describe audio setups in natural language and have the AI execute them in Wwise. Built with a custom Python WAAPI library, it enables both interactive authoring and automated batch operations on Wwise projects.
Prerequisites
- Wwise Authoring application installed and running with WAAPI enabled (Wwise 2021.1 or newer recommended)
- Windows or macOS operating system
- An MCP-compatible client such as Claude Desktop or Cursor
- No Python or Node.js installation required — the server ships as a standalone executable
Download the Wwise-MCP executable
Go to the GitHub releases page for BilkentAudio/Wwise-MCP, download the Wwise-MCP.zip for your platform (Windows or macOS Apple Silicon), and extract it to a permanent location on your machine.
# GitHub releases page:
https://github.com/BilkentAudio/Wwise-MCP/releasesEnable WAAPI in your Wwise project
In the Wwise Authoring application, go to Project Settings > User Preferences and enable 'Wwise Authoring API (WAAPI)'. The default WAAPI port is 8080. Wwise must be open with a project loaded for the MCP server to connect.
Make the binary executable on macOS
On macOS, the downloaded binary needs execute permission before it can be run. Replace the path with where you extracted the archive.
chmod +x "/path/to/Wwise-MCP-v1-0/macOS/Apple Silicon/Wwise-MCP"Add the server to your MCP client configuration
Edit your MCP client configuration file to point to the Wwise-MCP executable. Use the full absolute path to the binary for your platform.
{
"mcpServers": {
"wwise-mcp": {
"command": "/path/to/Wwise-MCP-v1-0/macOS/Apple Silicon/Wwise-MCP",
"args": []
}
}
}Open Wwise and restart your MCP client
Ensure Wwise Authoring is open with WAAPI enabled and a project loaded. Then restart Claude Desktop or Cursor so it connects to the Wwise-MCP server.

}Prompts to try
Example prompts for audio authoring in Wwise through the MCP server.
- "Connect to my Wwise project and list the top-level objects in the Actor-Mixer hierarchy."
- "Create a new Sound SFX object under the Actor-Mixer Hierarchy named 'Footstep_Concrete'."
- "Post the 'Play_Explosion' event on 5 new game objects spread 500 units around the origin."
- "Set up a random container under the Footstep folder with 4 audio file children."
- "Resolve all path relationships in the Actor-Mixer hierarchy and report any broken references."
- "Build soundbanks for all platforms and report any errors."Troubleshooting Wwise
Connection refused or WAAPI not responding
Ensure Wwise Authoring is open with a project loaded and WAAPI is enabled in Project Settings > User Preferences. The default WAAPI port is 8080 — check that no firewall or other application is blocking it. Wwise must remain open while using the MCP server.
Permission denied or binary blocked on macOS
Run 'chmod +x "/path/to/Wwise-MCP"' to make the binary executable. If macOS Gatekeeper blocks it, go to System Settings > Privacy & Security and click 'Allow Anyway' after the first blocked attempt, or run 'xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/path/to/Wwise-MCP"'.
Tools execute but changes do not appear in the Wwise project
WAAPI operations modify the in-memory Wwise project state. Save the project in Wwise (Ctrl+S / Cmd+S) to persist changes to disk. Some operations may require the Wwise project to be in an unlocked state — check the Wwise log window for any permission or lock errors.
