Abstract

Virginia Tech hosts four spatial audio labs utilized by artists, engineers, designers, and scientists. The largest spatial audio lab is the Cube, with an individually addressable 140 loudspeaker spatial audio system. Representatives from Virginia Tech propose a lecture and demonstration session comprised of strategies for soundscape auralization, specifically for high density loudspeaker arrays, which are systems of 24 or more loudspeakers. Discussion topics include system infrastructure design, real-time sound environment rendering, spatial audio strategies for composers and performers, control systems for live spatial audio, and virtual acoustics. Technical demonstrations include real-time convolution reverberation for arbitrary loudspeaker arrays, virtualizing loudspeaker systems, and tools to build soundscapes.
