ASH Toolset ~ Headphone Correction & Binaural Synthesis


The Audio Spatialisation for Headphones Toolset is a set of tools for headphone correction and binaural synthesis of spatial audio systems on headphones.

Features:

  • Headphone Correction — Generate headphone correction filters in WAV format for IR convolution or as configurations for graphic equalisers.
  • Binaural Room Simulation — Generate customised binaural simulations of different acoustic environments including control rooms, studios, halls, and more. Resulting filters can be saved in WAV format or SOFA format for IR convolution.
  • Equalizer APO Integration — Auto configures Equalizer APO to apply created filters and perform headphone correction and binaural room simulation.
  • HeSuVi Compatibility — Generates filters in formats compatible with HeSuVi, a headphone surround virtualization tool for Equalizer APO.
  • SOFA Format Compatibility – Load HRTF datasets and export customised binaural responses in SOFA format

HeSuVi Conversion Tool

This fairly simple tool converts all HeSuVi 14 channel presets into 7.0 formatted _L/_R stereo pairs, for use with the soon to be updated PulseAudio module-virtual-surround-sink, which I’ve updated with a faster FFT overlap-save convolver, eliminated the sample length limits for impulses, and added support for asymmetrical/dual impulse mode.
