2023-04-20

  • Update getMagLsFilters.m to improve computation speed by matricizing all operations for both ears
    (something similar should also be implemented for the other functions in the future)

  • Add getEMagLsFiltersEMAinSH.m to provide the implementation of EMA rendering filters in spherical harmonics
  • Update functions to calculate the HRIR group delay in a simpler way without meaningful changes in the result
    (this causes the resulting MagLS, eMagLS and eMagLS2 rendering filters to be different in a non-meaningful way at very high frequencies)
    (therefore the reference for MagLS, eMagLS and eMagLS2 rendering filters are updated for verification)
  • Add functions getMagLsSphericalHeadFilter.m and getMagLsArrayDiffuseFilter.m to provide direction-independent array equalization filters that can be useful in combination with MagLS

  • Fix functions to calculate the filters at the specified oversampled length
    (now the oversampling actually uses double the specified length up to a maximum of 2048 samples)

    (therefore the reference for all the rendering filters are updated for verification)

  • Rename getEMagLsFiltersEMA.m into ``getEMagLsFiltersEMAinEHtoSH.m` to reflect its function
  • Fix getEMagLsFiltersEMA.m parsing of default CH basis function handle
  • Update getEMagLsFiltersEMA.m SVD regularization parameter to yield more sensible rendering filters that
    (better behaviour in time domain at the cost of small deviations in magnitude response)

    (spherical HRIR data will be SH sub-sampled to a horizontal grid)

    (add the respective getCH.m and ch_stackOrder.m functions)
    (this is does not have an example configuration in testEMagLs.m yet)

    (add the respective applySubsampleDelay.m function)
    (this causes the resulting MagLS, eMagLS and eMagLS2 rendering filters to be different in a non-meaningful way at very high frequencies)
    (therefore the reference for MagLS, eMagLS and eMagLS2 rendering filters are updated for verification)

2022-06-15

  • Update getSMAIRMatrix.m to determine the simulation order based on the configuration aliasing frequency
    (this causes the resulting eMagLS and eMagLS2 rendering filters to be different in a non-meaningful way at very high frequencies)

  • Update getMagLsFilters.m, getEMagLsFilters.m and getEMagLs2Filters.m to use a transition frequency of 500 Hz times SH order instead of always 2000 Hz
    (changes the signature of getEMagLs2Filters.m to require the desired SH order)

  • Update getRadialFilter.m and getSMAIRMatrix.m to use sphModalCoeffs() from Array-Response-Simulator
    (therefore also remove own implementations of spherical hankel and bessel functions)
    (this causes the resulting eMagLS and eMagLS2 rendering filters to be slightly different at 0 Hz and the Nyquist bin)
    (therefore the reference for eMagLS and eMagLS2 rendering filters are updated for verification)
  • Update getSMAIRMatrix.m to streamline conjugate and transpose operations
