Re: [Sursound] Reaper performance issues.

Hello The obvious first: what are the source channel counts? 30 stereo is ok for non-ssd, but even that is pushing it if they are all playing… For info, I had similar flow and channel count in a piece in Reaper, cohabitating with 12 cheats (point-sources) with a similar number of source...

Re: [Sursound] A shared standard format for describing decoder loudspeaker setups?

This would be welcome indeed, but there are other issues (although some start to disappear and standardise) like where the 0 deg is, the direction of rotation, the channel order, the normalisation, etc I remember doing the same comparison 3 years ago, and sorting them all to compare apples

This report is very much in line with my observations too, in the concert hall and in optimal studio conditions. I would say that HOA start to be usable for focused point source around the 5th order, and gets better higher up with the problems of then having the speaker setup to fill it… so

Re: [Sursound] Infra sound Sub bass.

I think what people mean when legislation measuring at 100 dB-A is an oxymoron. dBA was meant to mimic the equal-loudness curve at low level of listening (around 40 dB spl @ 1k) and is absolutely not representative of the relatively linear curve around 100 dB SPL @1k. The wikipedia articles on

Re: [Sursound] Sound Externalization Headphone

so what happens is you take the positions of the speakers you want to simulate, and convolve each speaker signal with the appropriate head-related transfer functions for the left and right ear. Can I bring a concern here? I have compared different IRs of 5.1 setup with real, mastered 5.1
