Sounds for dsq

Hi all,
I've a query on sound synchronization for dsqs.
Let me take an example of a player attack animation. here one 'ooph', a swish is going to play and a punch on the collision. and each need to be called at different points in the specific animation.
I was working on Unreal previously, in which we input a percentage of animation length for calling each sound.
So is there something like the above to call various sounds at various part of the animation.
'll be very thankful if you can suggest some way.
Thanks,
Chari.

If timescale works, we can specify a percentage of a number of frames to initiate the sound.
Any way ???

Yes. we can go ahead with triggers if it a sound like hit. we can place a trigger at an exact position where it is hitting the ball. But in the case of dialogues and expressions... a modeler or animator may not be knowing where to put the trigger. Here, we need to have handles (silent portions in the audio clip). and once that particular sound clip is committed with a handle it may not be used for other situation, in which case each sound has to be dedicated for that animation. what if every animation has to have multiple sounds from which it plays one of them randomly.If timescale works, we can specify a percentage of a number of frames to initiate the sound.
Any way ???
