This paper deals with the analysis and reconstruction of wave fields
of musical instruments.
Wave Field Synthesis can dramatically increase the quality of sound reproduction. To create new vir- tual rooms with realistic ambience within any listen- ing space, new ideas for room simulation and virtual acoustics are needed. The work... more
In this paper we present a technique for the rendering of directional sources by means of loudspeaker arrays. The proposed methodology is based on a decomposition of the sound field in terms of plane waves. Within this framework the... more
Common room compensation algorithms are capable of dereverberating the listening room at some discrete points only. Outside these equalization points the sound quality is often even worse compared to the unequalized case. As wave field... more
Spatial Audio Perception and Envelopment are key areas of investigation for understanding audience attention and engagement when experiencing works through loudspeakers sound diffusion systems. This paper reports about the findings of a... more
The aim of the proposed system is to create an immersive audio environment for desktop applications without using headphones. It allows the spatialisation of 3D sound fields around an almost free mobile listener. The sound field is... more
We present a new software system for spatial audio repro- duction called SoundScape Renderer. It is currently used for rendering 2-dimensional virtual acoustic scenes using either Wave Field Synthesis, binaural rendering or Vector Based... more
Abstract. A practice-based project that explores design theories of spatial music with choreographic concepts and practices. Aspects of Wave Field Synthesis and Ambisonics technologies are discussed. A production of original works for... more
A method to synthesize the sound radiation characteristics of musical instruments in a wave front synthesis system is proposed and tested. Radiation patterns of a violin are measured with a circular microphone array which consists of 128... more
Current approaches for active noise control in large listening spaces require a high number of sensors to control the sound field within a given volume. This contribution presents a new approach based on the theory of acoustic wave... more
Multiactuator Panels (MAPs) are flat loudspeakers that can be used to build arrays for Wave Field Synthesis (WFS), al- ternatively to classical dynamic loudspeakers. The sound ra- diation of these loudspeakers is a complex superposition... more
The application of adaptive algorithms like noise reduction or echo cancellation on Wave Field Synthesis and Wave Field Analysis may be performed by using Wave Domain Adaptive Filtering in order to limit the computational complexity. The... more
Common room compensation algorithms are capable of dereverberating the listening room at some discrete points only. Outside of these equalization points the sound quality is often even worse compared to the unequalized case. However a new... more
In this paper a psychoacoustic sound field synthesis (pSFS) system for musical applications is presented. It recreates the radiation patterns of musical instruments for an extended listening area. For this purpose several psychoacoustic... more
Defining space is one of the essential elements of architectural design, merging perception with certain programmatic functions. From a tangible and tectonic point of view, space usually forms a three-dimensional framework. Since Albert... more
Sound field synthesis approaches aim at creating a desired sound field. Conventionally, these approaches are physically-motivated. Acoustical properties define the desired sound field. A perceptual evaluations of the listening experience... more
