How to use personal HRTF data in omnitone? #187

Closed bossesand closed 6 years ago

As availability of personal HRTF sets are now within reach for end users ( i have a set from IDA) I have a question.

Can a procedure be described on how to turn the HRTF into a format that can be used to replace the KU100 impulse responses in the javascript source?

I have extracted my personal IR for the elevations of +-35 degrees and directions +-135 and +-45, should they be filtered and if so how to do that ?

How should I the replacement in the javascript be done?

Hi @bossesand,

Unfortunately, custom HRTFs are not currently supported. However, if you are willing to spend some time, you could modify and use this Matlab script to create your own set of spherical harmonic encoded HRTFs. Then, you should be able to swap the Omnitone filters here and just follow the readme.

Hope that helps!
