Document hrir filter installation #12

Closed patrickdupuis closed 6 years ago

patrickdupuis commented 6 years ago

Users require some hrir filters in order to make use of the HOADecLebedev* UGens. If I understand correctly, by default, these files need to be located in ~/.local/share/HOA/kernels/FIR/hrir/*lebedev50 (linux) or ~/Library/Application Support/HOA/kernels/FIR/hrir/*lebedev50 (macOS).

The SC-HOA documentation doesn't appear to instruct users how to obtain these files, or where they should be placed. The ambitools repository contains Lebedev audio files. Couldn't users be instructed to download those and place them somewhere on their system?

SATIE makes use of the files from the ambitools repo that we place in our own custom location. Ideally, we would like to access these files in the default SC-HOA location. Our installation instructions could simply echo yours in telling users they need some additional resources.

just added to the tutorial the info on where to get the FIR's from (ambitools)

patrickdupuis commented 6 years ago

This information needs to be located in the Installation section of the README. Why bury this information in a tutorial?

Also, the addition is incorrect. The FIR folder needs to be copied to ~/.local/share/HOA/kernels/`.

I've also noticed an issue with the HOA.userSoundsDir, etc. I'll submit a PR.

HOA.userSoundsDir

these are some b-foramt files too big to host in GitHub, maybe SAT wants to host them?
