Sound Field Synthesis Toolbox for Python
We are proud to announce the first release 0.1.0 of the Sound Field Synthesis toolbox for python. The toolbox is purely written in Python. It currently features the calculation of the synthesized sound field for various sound reproduction methods for … Continue reading
Paper: Non-smooth secondary source distributions in Wave Field Synthesis
The paper Non-smooth secondary source distributions in Wave Field Synthesis by Sascha Spors, Frank Schultz and Hagen Wierstorf disusses artifacts arising from edges in rectangular loudspeaker arrays. The Python scripts used to compute the figures in the paper can be … Continue reading

Happy Christmas 2014
Some time ago we have published an approach to the synthesis of sound figures. A surrounding three-dimensional loudspeaker array can be used to synthesize an (more or less) arbitrary shaped zone with higher sound level. See what we have simulated … Continue reading
