Oriented Reverb
Wwise Audio Lab
Description: Late reverb playing from a 3D bus keeps its orientation with regard to the Room, which makes for a convincing sense of presence. This example showcases the AK Convolution Reverb plug-in using a first order ambisonics IR that purposely steers the energy in one direction. Note: The IR has been exaggerated to make the oriented reverberation effect more obvious.

For example, ambisonics will be decoded or encoded if needed. Note: The function will fail if the input or output configuration is object-based, as the speaker volume matrix would be undefined. All panning or spatialization types are honored. 3D Spatialization is performed relative to the default listener position (0,0,0) and orientation, where the front vector is (0,0,1) and the top vector is (0 ...
