Source

When you set the Source Mode to OFF, it releases the Source (and puts it into Local). For an
external source, this means you are now free to operate the source for other purposes.

When the Source is acquired, its previous state is saved, and when it is released, that state is
restored, so that you can acquire and then release the source and it will return to the state it was
in before you acquired it.
