Previewing your Ambient Sound

Once the audio file is uploaded, you can continue curating your exhibition as usual.

Note: During the curation process (edit mode), you won’t be able to listen to the audio. Playback is available when you preview your exhibition.

When you preview your exhibition, you’ll see a volume control in the top-right corner. Visitors can use this control to adjust the volume or completely mute and unmute the ambient sound.

The audio file will play on a continuous loop.
