Oscar Perla – Technical Sound Designer

Full-Stack Audio Professional specializing in XR (VR/AR) audio architecture and implementation. My core value is the ability to own the audio pipeline from source recording and mastering to high-performance C# deployment in Unity/Wwise. I design systems like Dual-Raycast Occlusion and procedural footsteps not only for technical stability but to ensure the highest fidelity and creative impact in immersive environments.

My methodology is underpinned by a rigorous foundation built through my Associate of Arts degree in Music Technology and specialized certificates in Pro Tools Post Production and Game Audio from Foothill College.

This expertise ensures a high standard of technical rigor across the entire pipeline, specializing in Foley creation, clean recording, and mastering. I combine this production discipline with engineering focus, prioritizing CPU throttling, modular RTPC design, and scalable system architecture to deliver production-ready assets and code

This system simulates realistic sound filtering by utilizing a high-performance Dual-Raycast logic (C#). It accurately calculates three states—Clear (0), Obstructed (50), and Occluded (100)—and applies the result to a Wwise Low-Pass Filter (LPF) curve. Crucially, it is optimized for VR with CPU Throttling (0.2s interval),  focused on low-latency execution and engine physics.

This system showcases robust spatial audio architecture using the AkEnvironment and AkEnvironmentalPortal components within Unity. This configuration allows for dynamic and smooth audio propagation and reverberation transitions between distinct acoustic zones. The implementation proves expertise in the native Wwise/Unity workflow for managing Auxiliary Bus routing efficiently, ensuring CPU optimization while maintaining high audio fidelity across the environment.”
