# data

A storage buffer for the sound asset.

```
var data: Data? { get }
```

## Discussion

This property has a value when an app creates the asset with [`registerSoundAsset(data:identifier:format:normalizationMode:)`](/documentation/PHASE/PHASEAssetRegistry/registerSoundAsset(data:identifier:format:normalizationMode:)); otherwise the value is `nil`.
