## Remarks

This enumeration describes the audio manipulation features that your app can request from Game Chat 2 for a chat instance. You can retrieve the current audio manipulation mode for the chat instance by calling the [chat\_manager::audio\_manipulation\_mode](/reference/chat/gamechat2/classes/chat_manager/methods/chat_manager_audio_manipulation_mode) method. You can set the audio manipulation mode when you initialize the chat instance, by calling the [chat\_manager::initialize](/reference/chat/gamechat2/classes/chat_manager/methods/chat_manager_initialize) method.

For more information about manipulating chat audio data, see [Real-time audio manipulation](/services/xbox-services/multiplayer/chat/game-chat2/real-time-audio-manipulation).
