* Rework HRTF coefficient fadingChris Robinson2017-03-111-27/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This improves fading between HRIRs as sources pan around. In particular, it improves the issue with individual coefficients having various rounding errors in the stepping values, as well as issues with interpolating delay values. It does this by doing two mixing passes for each source. First using the last coefficients that fade to silence, and then again using the new coefficients that fade from silence. When added together, it creates a linear fade from one to the other. Additionally, the gain is applied separately so the individual coefficients don't step with rounding errors. Although this does increase CPU cost since it's doing two mixes per source, each mix is a bit cheaper now since the stepping is simplified to a single gain value, and the overall quality is improved.
* Allocate as many channels for DirectHrtfState as neededChris Robinson2017-03-111-3/+3

* Move the B-Format HRTF virtual speaker stuff to InitHrtfPanningChris Robinson2017-01-181-66/+9
| | | | | This keeps the decoder matrices and coefficient mapping together for if it changes in the future.
* Fix a couple hard-coded array sizesChris Robinson2017-01-161-2/+2
|
* Use ALsizei for sizes and offsets with the mixerChris Robinson2017-01-161-26/+26
| | | | | | Unsigned 32-bit offsets actually have some potential overhead on 64-bit targets for pointer/array accesses due to rules on integer wrapping. No idea how much impact it has in practice, but it's nice to be correct about it.
* Use second-order ambisonics for basic HRTF renderingChris Robinson2017-01-151-10/+29
| | | | | | This should improve positional quality for relatively low cost. Full HRTF rendering still only uses first-order since the only use of the dry buffer there is for first-order content (B-Format buffers, effects).
* One more update for the HRTF B-Format coefficientsChris Robinson2017-01-091-14/+14
| | | | These should better represent the pseudo-inverse matrices with N3D scaling.
* Update the B-Format HRTF coefficients to use the pseudo-inverse matrixChris Robinson2017-01-041-26/+14
| | | | | | It's hard to tell which is ultimately better, although this way does make the FOA output somewhat louder which will help when it's combined with direct HRTF rendering.
* Fixes for embedded HRTFs on OSXChris Robinson2016-11-111-5/+6
| | | | | | | | Use an empty source file to build a stub object file, instead of /dev/null. Use _mh_dylib_header to retrieve the data on 10.7+, instead of _mh_execute_header. And shorten the names to fit in the 16-character limit. Thanks to Anna Cheremnykh for the fixes!

* Rebalance the frequencies for B-Format HRTF coefficientsChris Robinson2016-11-011-14/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The original pseudo-inverse method that generated the LF matrix expects the high frequencies to be scaled up by ~2.645751 over the low frequencies (or sqrt(7), ~8.45dB). However, the AllRAD method used to generate the HF matrix produced a matrix that was only scaled up by 1.46551981258 (based on the average of the W coefficients). Previously, the LF matrix was scaled down by sqrt(7), as the difference specified in the pseudo-inverse results. This failed to account for the increase already present in the HF matrix, so now the LF matrix is scaled down by the remaining difference between the expected scaling and the scaling already present in the HF matrix (sqrt(7) / 1.46551981258 = 1.80533302205, or roughly 5.13dB, where the reciprocal is 0.553914423 for -5.13 dB).
* Don't interpolate between nearest HRIRsChris Robinson2016-10-091-75/+38
| | | | | | | | It still fades between HRIRs when it changes, but now it selects the nearest one instead of blending the nearest four. Due to the minimum-phase nature of the HRIRs, interpolating between delays lead to some oddities which are exasperated by the fading (and the fading is needed to avoid clicks and pops, and smooth out changes).
* Update the ambisonic coefficients for HRTFChris Robinson2016-09-261-15/+15
| | | | | | | This uses an AllRAD-derived decoder matrix for the high frequencies, which seems to improve positioning response. It also switches back to dual-band. The low frequencies appear to be unexpectedly quiet by comparison, but it's not that bad and can be tweaked later.
* Don't warn if the desired default HRTF is already firstChris Robinson2016-09-101-4/+4
|
* Reduce the volume for the HRTF ambisonic decoderChris Robinson2016-09-081-14/+14
| | | | | | | Since it's accumulating multiple HRIRs for two output speakers, it seems to be a better option to preserve the amplitude of the high-frequency decoder instead of increasing it, and reduce the amplitude of the low-frequency decoder to compensate.
* Use a few more HRIRs for the HRTF B-Format decoderChris Robinson2016-09-071-19/+31
| | | | | 14 in total, an 8-point cube and a 6-point diamond shape, to help improve sound localization a bit. Incurs no real extra CPU cost once the IRs are built.
* Properly align 16-bit fields in the Hrtf structChris Robinson2016-09-071-10/+20

* Always load HRTF files through memory pointersChris Robinson2016-08-311-261/+134
|
* Add a compile-time macro to use dual-band ambisonic HRTF processingChris Robinson2016-08-301-12/+36
| | | | | Use single-band processing for now, to see if dual-band is causing a drop in quality at all.
* Band-split the HRIRs when building the ambisonic decoder filtersChris Robinson2016-08-211-21/+43
| | | | | This allows each HRIR to contribute a frequency-dependent response, essentially acting like a dual-band decoder playing over the cube speaker array.
* Fix HRTF index calculations for B-Format coefficientsChris Robinson2016-08-181-11/+10
| | | | | | | The CalcEvIndices and CalcAzIndices methods were dependent on the FPU being in round-to-zero mode, which is not the case for panning initialization. And since we just need the closest index and don't need to lerp between them, it's better to just directly calculate the index with rounding.
* Only use the cube points for generating the ambisonic HRTF coefficientsChris Robinson2016-08-171-56/+72
| | | | | | | | | | | Using all the HRIRs seems to have problems with volume balancing, due in part to HRTF data sets not having uniform enough measurements for a simple decoder matrix to work (and generating a proper one that would work better is not that easy). This still maintains the benefits of decoding ambisonics directly to HRTF, namely that it only needs to filter the 4 ambisonic channels and can use more optimized HRTF filtering methods on those channels. It can also be improved further with frequency-dependent processing baked into the generated coefficients, incurring no extra run-time cost for it.
* Decode directly from B-Format to HRTF instead of a cubeChris Robinson2016-08-111-0/+76
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Last time this attempted to average the HRIRs according to their contribution to a given B-Format channel as if they were loudspeakers, as well as averaging the HRIR delays. The latter part resulted in the loss of the ITD (inter-aural time delay), a key component of HRTF. This time, the HRIRs are averaged similar to above, except instead of averaging the delays, they're applied to the resulting coefficients (for example, a delay of 8 would apply the HRIR starting at the 8th sample of the target HRIR). This does roughly double the IR length, as the largest delay is about 35 samples while the filter is normally 32 samples. However, this is still smaller the original data set IR (which was 256 samples), it also only needs to be applied to 4 channels for first-order ambisonics, rather than the 8-channel cube. So it's doing twice as much work per sample, but only working on half the number of samples. Additionally, since the resulting HRIRs no longer rely on an extra delay line, a more efficient HRTF mixing function can be made that doesn't use one. Such a function can also avoid the per-sample stepping parameters the original uses.
* Properly skip loading of already-loaded HRTF data setsChris Robinson2016-07-241-4/+24
| | | | | | | Previously, if an HRTF file was loaded it would not only skip loading it, but it would also skip adding it to the output enumeration list. Now it properly skips loading it when it's already loaded, but still adds it to the enumeration list if it's not already in it.

|
* Use an 8-channel cube for HRTF's virtual format.Chris Robinson2016-02-201-102/+0
| | | | | | There were phase issues caused by applying HRTF directly to the B-Format channels, since the HRIR delays were all averaged which removed the inter-aural time-delay, which in turn removed significant spatial information.
* Allocate each HRTF as a single chunkChris Robinson2016-02-161-21/+39
|
* Calculate HRTF stepping params right before mixingChris Robinson2016-02-141-134/+0
| | | | | This means we track the current params and the target params, rather than the target params and the stepping. This closer matches the non-HRTF mixers.
* Don't pass the channel count to GetBFormatHrtfCoeffsChris Robinson2016-02-091-6/+4
| | | | Since it's hard-coded anyway, there's no need to specify it.
