Re: [Sursound] Array for sound field recording and extend the sound image

2013-01-09 Thread Dave Malham
Hi Tim,
Indeed, SNR is poor at low frequencies for this sort of technique as
it relies on the phase difference between the two capsules as produced
by their separation. The separation can't be too large as once it gets
over half a wavelength the phase starts wrapping around but this means
that at low frequencies the difference is tiny and requires a lot of
amplification (cf. the 6dB rise in response with frequency that
someone else mentioned). This results in poor SNR and worsening
susceptibility to capsule variances as the frequency goes down. If you
can cope with the extra complexity, using more than one set of
capsules with different spacings to cover different frequency ranges
is a good idea...

Re: [Sursound] Array for sound field recording and extend the sound image

2013-01-09 Thread Peter Lennox
HI, the front-back reversals problem isn't peculiar to ambisonics - it can 
sometimes happen in real life (most often, though not always, in a symmetrical 
space) and is well known in the laboratory. It's really a subset of the 'cones 
of confusion' problem, which Batteau proposed that Pinnae effects help with, 
and Wallach proposed head movements help with - and I'd say you get best 
results with both.
Since ambisonics, especially in lower orders, actually homogenises  potential 
pinnae cues (eg using multiple sources to produce a simulation of a plane wave 
from a single source), then 'search behaviour' - small head movements to 
produce different sets of pinnae cues- works less well than for real 
environments; movements have to be grosser, and for longer.
Higher orders help, some kind of processing for high frequencies (Harpex, for 
instance) might help. I've even cheated with this and used a precedent (about 
7ms), bandwidth limited, amplitude limited, version of a target source simply 
routed into a single speaker - sort of an infinite order applied to transients. 
This last removes some of the actual  reversals that you get ion a large array 
with off-centre listeners

Without more details, it hard to speculate about problems, but I'll note

that subtracting the outputs of two omnis to get a fig-8 response will

result in a frequency response that rises 6dB/octave with a 90 degree phase

shift relative to the sum.  Unless that is corrected, these signals are not

suitable for B-format.

I have checked my encoder, and definitely right as you said.
I have just compensated for the magnitude and lost the phase modification.
After modified, the location of audio is right and the sound image have been 
extended and much natural.

But if the location of the sound is on the front of array, the listener cannot 
perceive clearly
・ whether the audio is in the front or on the back. I think it needs 
more processing, e.g. add
・ head tracking. If I have I have good result, I will share it with 
all. But it need more time since

An open paper on directional mics
http://www.iwaenc.org/proceedings/2001/main/data/buck.pdf

I had a idea that I could use 2 close mounted mics (o) for Upper frequency 
ranges and a longer distance between 2 additional elements (x) to have  better 
signal to noise ratio for the lower frequency band, would that be practical? 
Then mix the 2   hi o and low x  frequency signals.

(x) (o)(o)(x)  4 omni mics for a figure 
of 8 pattern mic, maybe mounted on a plate according to 

I have seen  a DIY differential mic based on the blumlein principle

 What happens when you decode a walkaround

 This would allow you to determine whether the
 problem is with your decoder, or with the way
 you calculate your B-Format components.

Re: [Sursound] Array for sound field recording and extend the sound image

2013-01-07 Thread Chenrilin
Hi,

   Seems likely then that the problem is related to the usual in

head problem that many (maybe even most) people people have with

simple, non matched HRTF based systems, whether driven from decoded

Ambisonic signals or from binaurally recorded (dummy head) material.

There's been a lot of work on this (just search the AES library, for

instance) and there have been many suggestions for solving this but,

in my opinion, the only one which has anything like a chance for

solving the problem for the majority of listeners is to add head

tracking to the system. This is because if the soundscape stays locked

to the reference frame of your head (as happens without head

tracking), it is _very_ difficult to convince your perceptions that it

is anything but in your head and therefore locking the soundscape to

the external fixed reference plane by using headtracking instead makes

it much more natural to perceive it as external. This is even more

important even than having HRTF's that are the same as, or closely

matched to, your own (though such individualised responses do help).

Strong visual cues can also help and in some cases will be almost as

good at moving the perceived reference frame to the external world as

you get with headtracking - though this is _very_ dependent on the

particular circumstances.

Thanks very much. You are so kind. I will have a try as your suggestion.

Best regards,

Rilin Chen

[Sursound] Array for sound field recording and extend the sound image

2013-01-06 Thread Chenrilin
Hello, all
I have designed an array of four microphones to get B-format signal. The 
coordinates of mics
are mic1 (-d/2,0), mic2 (d/2,0), mic3 (0, d/2), mic4 (0,-d/2),and d is about 
18mm.Every opposite
pair can be composed into a first order differential array and get a pattern of 
figure 8. So the X
component can be got from mic1 and mic2, the Y  component can be get from mic3 
and mic4.
The W component equals to the mean of signals from four mics. Then I decoded 
them to get the
feeding signal for four loudspeakers, and used HRTFs to get the left and right 
signal for headphone.


1.   Furthermore, the experiment is made that a person was walking around 
the array and say

something in an office. After processed by the method above, I find there is a 
problem that

the speech sounds like a person talking and moving around my head but very near 
to my ears

and head. What is the main reasons for this problem? Is there any suggestion to 
make it sounds

much further from the ears and head.


2.   Do I need to add the early reflection and late reverberation to the 
four loudspeakers? In my

understanding, the recording signal of array has included the reflection and 
late reverberation

signal of the office. If add another reflection signal to the feeding signal of 
loudspeakers, they

will contain two kind of reflection signal. Is my understanding right? 
Apologize for this simple question.




Thanks advanced.

Do you get the same problem if you playback through four loudspeakers, or
is it only after HRTF manipulation ?

(I cannot see how it would cause this, but: Have you controlled to see if
W is at the correct level compared with X and Y (depends a lot on the
polar pattern of your mic's). Probably would need to analyse some
recordings of 'point' sources to check that.)

* Are the mics omnis, or directional ? If directional, what
  are the directions ?

* How exactly to you compute X and Y frm the mic signals ?

* Does the decoding work on speakers (without HRTF) ?

Do you get the same problem if you playback through four loudspeakers, or

is it only after HRTF manipulation ?


We'll need a bit more information.

The mics are omnis. And it can work on speakers well. So I think

X and Y computed is exactly for decoder.
