About
Founded in 2005 by industry insiders, Source Elements revolutionized remote recording — breaking down geographic and economic barriers. Today, we empower a global community of creators with workflows that enable us to collaborate together, from anywhere.
Our Story
“We live the workflows we design.”
We aren't software generalists—we are audio engineers, producers, and media creators. Every line of code, routing plugin, and protocol we build solves real challenges tested in commercial studios.
“Defining the future of remote production since 2005.”
From pioneering internet audio streaming before high-speed broadband was mainstream to inventing patented auto-repair algorithms like Restore & Replace, we continuously push the boundaries of virtual studio infrastructure.
“Uniting creators across oceans and classrooms.”
We foster a global network of artists, post-houses, educators, and students through our Academy certifications, active community forums, and global university partnerships—making location irrelevant to creative talent.
Studio-grade fidelity & security while apart.
We believe internet audio should stand for the best quality, sample-accurate timeline sync, and enterprise-grade encryption to protect unreleased media.

Who we serve
Source Elements was built to free talent from geographical constraints. By giving voice artists broadcast-ready audio tools, automatic safety backups, and accredited Academy training, we help solo performers land major global gigs directly from their home studios.
Designed by veteran re-recording mixers and sound designers, our software integrates seamlessly into AAX, VST, and AU hosts across macOS and Windows. Handle multi-channel surround, Dolby Atmos® setups, and live client approvals with absolute phase precision.
We believe spontaneous creative spark happens live. Our virtual patchbays and low-latency audio connections allow producers, bandmates, and guest artists to jam, track, and mix directly inside shared DAW timelines across oceans.
We empower universities, media academies, and audio schools with institutional software deployments and curriculum certifications—giving students hands-on experience with the exact tools used across the global entertainment industry.
Leadership
Rebekah is the technical co-founder and CEO who co-created the entire suite of Source Elements software. With a degree in music composition and a lifetime of love for technology, Rebekah has focused her career as a composer, electronic music researcher and software developer, with a particular focus on media technology. With her dual capacities in both technical and business operations she is instrumental in building Source Elements into a global company, a connected network of tens of thousands of media professionals who rely on their software to complete their projects.
Rebekah merged her two passions of music and network technology via her Masters in Networked Music Technology. As a lecturer on that topic at the Royal Conservatory of the Hague, as well as a Supervisory board member on Instrument Inventors Initiative, MAZE Ensemble and Musicians Without Borders, she aims to be part of the future where increasingly sophisticated internet and music technologies emerge while promoting international relationships through music. With technological advances in rich audio and video applications, being distant from each other is no longer a barrier when it comes to performing together.
Robert Marshall is the innovations co-founder who holds degrees in electrical engineering and music composition. Using his skills as a musician, engineer, and producer, he is the visionary behind the idea of leveraging Internet connectivity to make post-production faster and more productive. He is a crucial force behind the solutions that have become synonymous with Source Elements such as Remote Transport Sync and Auto-Restore & Replace.
While having one hand on the mixing desk he helped lead the industry away from ISDN and onto the internet—with Source Elements as the gateway. With more than a decade working as a sound designer/mixer on national & international radio and TV spots, he provides services in broadcast capacities for various new outlets including NPR and runs ADR sessions for film and episodic work. This extensive, ongoing hands-on experience helps Robert have a full understanding of what the industry needs. Robert’s focus on core functionality and customer relationships have been key to Source Elements’ continued development as an industry-leader.

FAQ
Source Elements was founded in 2005 by Rebekah Wilson and Robert Marshall, veteran audio engineers and recording professionals who wanted to solve a major studio challenge: replacing expensive, rigid ISDN hardware lines with a flexible software solution that allowed DAWs to stream pristine, sample-accurate audio over the internet in real time.
Because they are built specifically for mission-critical studio environments. Unlike generic video conferencing software that compresses audio and introduces latency, Source Elements software provides frame-accurate timeline synchronization (RTS), automated file restoration (Restore & Replace), up to 192 kHz sample rate support, and multi-channel audio up to Dolby Atmos® setups.
Any audio professional or institution that demands studio-grade fidelity, real-time collaboration, and bulletproof timeline sync. This includes voiceover artists, re-recording mixers, film post-houses, music producers, game sound designers, broadcasters, and audio engineering schools.
Because our support team is staffed by active audio engineers and specialists who understand live studio pressure. We offer real-time technical assistance, phone calls, email replies at speed-fast, hands-on network troubleshooting, and session setups to ensure your mission-critical recordings run flawlessly without delays.
Source Elements is deeply committed to building an inclusive global audio community. Through partnerships with industry organizations, educational institutions, and initiatives like women-in-audio advocacy, we provide accessible training, software discounts, and official certifications via Source Elements Scholarship to empower underrepresented creators worldwide.
Through our dedicated R&D division—Source-Connect Labs and Source-Nexus Labs—our team collaborates directly with power users, system architects, and researchers to test next-generation transport protocols, experimental virtual drivers, and advanced spatial audio routing tools before commercial deployment.
