Wwise Audio Lab

Description:

• The same recorded Room tones have been rendered in ambisonics 1st order and in Quad (standard 4.0: L, R, RL, RR). Both use four channels, so they use the same amount of resources at runtime.

Action Item:

• To compare ambisonics with Quad:

• Game Menu (Esc) > Sound Options > Ambient Sources > Quad

What to Expect:

• You may find the ambisonics version sounds more natural than its Quad equivalent, which sounds more jumpy when moving your head around.
