## Remarks

This enumeration is used by the [game\_chat\_audio\_format](/reference/chat/gamechat2/structs/game_chat_audio_format) structure to indicate whether the audio data represented by the structure uses Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) data represented by either integers or floating-point numbers. The `game_chat_audio_format` structure identifies the audio format of the buffers the app retrieves from and submits to Game Chat 2 when real-time audio manipulation is enabled. For more information about audio formats, see [Real-time audio manipulation](/services/xbox-services/multiplayer/chat/game-chat2/real-time-audio-manipulation).
