A method and apparatus for processing sound sources to simulate
environmental effects includes source channel blocks for each source and
single reverberation block. The source channel blocks include direct,
early reflection, and late reverberation blocks for conditioning the
source feeds to include delays, spectral changes, and attenuations
depending on the position, orientation and directivity of the sound
sources, the position and orientation of the listener, and the position
and sound transmission and reflection properties of obstacles and walls
in a modeled environment. The outputs of the source channel blocks are
combined and provided to single reverberation block generating both the
early reflections and the late reverberation for all sound sources.
