You can use audio IFX to add sounds to your sequence. Audio IFX appear on the timeline with a distinct color and icon. Adjust the container for an audio IFX on the timeline to control when it will be audible.

Beyond a specified distance, the sound won't be audible. To control the area within which the sound is audible, adjust the scale of the IFX. The area within which the sound will be heard is represented by a transparent sphere:
