# Why Sound Events?

You just want to play a sound and are annoyed that you have to create a sound event to do it. Here's some of the things sound events can do for you.

* Define whether sound is 2D or 3D
* Define the volume
* Randomly choose between multiple sounds each play
* Randomly adjust volume or pitch each play
* Can be fired from animations

# Creating Sound Events In Code

You can define a sound event as a static field in any class in your addon. The class doesn't have to be an entity, it could be an empty class made especially to define sound events.

```cs
class ExampleClass
{
	static SoundEvent ExampleSound = new ( "sounds/example.wav" );
}
```


This will create a sound event called `ExampleClass.ExampleSound`.

# Using Sound Events

You can directly use the SoundEvent with [Sound.Play](https://wiki.facepunch.com/sbox/Guide_to_Sounds).
