Chapter 29: Ocean Way Studios
Source
A variety of audio sources (dispersion patterns) were
modeled for Ocean Way Studios. The Source menu sets
the optimum placement of the source within the room, as
determined by the expertise of Allen Sides.
Because an audio source’s placement within a room de-
termines the dispersion pattern of sound waves through-
out the room, the active source can have a significant im-
pact on the sound in the room.
Note:
Although the source placements are optimized for
the source in the title (drums, strings, etc), any type of au-
dio source can be used with any Source selection. Exper-
imentation is encouraged.
Source Menu
To change the active source, click the current source name then select the de-
sired source from the drop menu. The current source is displayed in the menu

The modeled sources (dispersion patterns) that are available in Ocean Way
Studios are shown at right. “Cab” is short for electric guitar amplifier speaker
cabinet. The letter is a brand name indicator.
Note:
Cab O is available as a source only when Room B is active.
When the source is changed, the default source settings for mic selections and
distances are loaded for the Near, Mid, and Far microphones. This menu
does not change the microphone’s Filter, Polarity, Mute, Balance, or Level set-
tings.
