Abstract:
In the synthesis of the late reverberation tail in binaural/spatial/room impulse responses, a common approach involves applying estimated frequency-dependent decay curves to a binaural white noise sequence. However, in small rooms, the frequency response at lower frequencies can become highly uneven due to pronounced position-dependent modes. By leveraging estimated mode parameters derived from the original impulse response, the lower frequency portion of the impulse response can be resynthesized with greater accuracy using estimated mode parameters from the original room impulse response. This work compares the noise shaping technique and the presented extended method, which incorporates the mode reconstruction for handling lower frequencies.
