Hi, In the mean time, I found out that the C++ function "add_volume_source" can receive as a parameter an amplitude-function. This function defines a factor with which the source is multiplied as a function of the position. The equivalent in Scheme is the amp-func parameter of source. So using such a function we can then implement the functionality which I mentioned in my previous mail. If this would not be correct, please let me know :)
