7 years ago I think its worth implementing it. The major modification would be, that the current functions have to support single-channel (or other-than-dual-channel) data.
@hagenw : We may also think about renaming the SFS_binaural_synthesis directory or merging it to SFS_ir, because the GeneralFIRE does not reflect anything binaural, anymore.
(Monaural) room impulse responses (RIRs) of the loudspeaker array in Rostock are stored as SOFA files with the convention GeneralFIRE. We could include this convention in
get_ir()so that it's possible to simulate a loudspeaker array in a room by loading RIRs from a SOFA file. What do you think of this? The drawback I see is that I don't know which other types of data GeneralFIRE is used for that don't make sense when using them in this way in the SFS toolbox. This convention was created newly when I released my data. I don't know if it has been used by someone else since then.
