Dear List members, over the past months, I have been following this group with great interest. I would like to ask you if you can give me some advice on converting B-Format recordings to a binaural format for reproducing the spatial impression of my recordings on headphones. Mostly, I am

Hello Moritz, If you're up for getting into SuperCollider, we've just released the Ambisonic Toolkit as an SC3 library: www.ambisonictoolkit.net/ We've included three different sets of binaural decoders, using two measured sets (IRCAM Listen, UC Davis CIPIC) and a synthetic head set. On 4

Hi All, thanks a lot for your replies. Harpex-B is quite expensive - I like to try Tetraproc, but I am not sure how to run it on my mac without Linux... Do you have an advice? The SC3 library looks very nice as well. I will give it a try! Thank you, Moritz Am 04.04.2012 um 13:27 schrieb

Hello, I was also wondering what other techniques exist to perform this B-Format to binaural conversion other than what I've been already doing: decoding the B-Format signal to a virtual 3D speaker array placed using HRTF IRs for each speaker location. Are there any ways of going directly from

Hi Hector, In one of my talks with Michael Gerzon (or, rather, one of my listening to MAG sessions - he talked, I listened and tried to understand), he hinted that there was a more direct path, but didn't elaborate further. Given that you can encode HRTF's in a spherical harmonic framework
