Re: [sc-users] general Binaural question & specific Ambien question





Thanks for this link - I still need to track down the Kemar class for Ambien, which didn't come with the download i got. Do you know where I find it?

thanks,

jascha

i have used HRTF impulse responses from the IRCAM listen project ( http://recherche.ircam.fr/equipes/salles/listen/download.html ) with Convolution2 a while ago. It works very nicely, after you have truncated the IRs to the minimum required length (= minimum CPU load). Don't ask me though how many convolutions you can get on one machine. There's a menu item Extras -> HRIR preparation in meloncillo ( sourceforge.net/projects/meloncillo ) that does the impluse response truncation for you. the LISTEN database is only sampled for some angles though - on the other hand you can choose the file that is the most realistic for your head -, and you might need to simulate spatial depth (distance) maybe....

ciao, -sciss-

I have some questions about Binaural sound.

General question:

I'd like to be able to work on an 8-channel piece without having to always go to an 8-channel studio. It seems like I could do this by setting up an array of 8 audio buses which would be routed to 8 different binaurally filtered stereo buses, which would be mixed to a straight stereo headphone signal. I'm only assuming Binaural filtering can happen in real-time - or is it too tricky? Advice?

specific Ambien question:

I've just been looking at Ambien, but I've already run into a problem in that some of the examples make use of a Kemar class which isn't in the Ambien package, and there's reference to a directory called "KemarHRTF" which I also don't have. Where do I get these things?

thanks,

jascha
