2.2 Pre-processing
A very important part of the auralization system is the offline calculation, decoding, and storage of an accurate set of impulse responses ready to be used in the second block, which applies the room effect to a talker’s voice in real-time. This part of the system is an adaptation of the LoRA toolbox designed by Favrot and Buchholz [5]. The LoRA toolbox is a software application that uses the output (impulse response with directional information) of an acoustics simulation program to encode it in Ambisonics and decode it to a particular reproduction layout, producing an IR for each loudspeaker.
However, some modifications in the procedure and calculation are needed in order to
