# UnPause()

> Unpause the paused playback of this AudioSource.

## Definition

* **Type:** Method
* **Namespace:** [UnityEngine](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityengine.md)
* **Assembly:** UnityEngine.AudioModule

```csharp
public void UnPause()
```

### Remarks

This function is similar to if you call Play() on a paused AudioSource, except that it will not create a new playback voice if it is not currently paused.

This is also useful if you have paused one-shots and want to resume playback without creating a new playback voice for the attached AudioClip.

If you use `UnPause` on an AudioSource that hasn't played before or has stopped, the audio will not play. This is because `UnPause` resumes the clip from when the clip was last paused. You need to play and then pause the clip before you can unpause it.

### Examples

```csharp
using UnityEngine;

// The Audio Source component has an AudioClip option.  The audio
// played in this example comes from AudioClip and is called audioData.

[RequireComponent(typeof(AudioSource))]
public class ExampleScript : MonoBehaviour
{
    AudioSource audioSource;

    void Start()
    {
        audioSource = GetComponent<AudioSource>();
        audioSource.Play(0);
        Debug.Log("started");
    }

    void OnGUI()
    {
        if (GUI.Button(new Rect(10, 70, 150, 30), "Pause"))
        {
            audioSource.Pause();
            Debug.Log("Pause: " + audioSource.time);
        }

        if (GUI.Button(new Rect(10, 170, 150, 30), "Continue"))
        {
            audioSource.UnPause();
        }
    }
}
```
