Abstract

A computer-implemented method for processing audio. The method includes obtaining a binaural room impulse response (BRIR) of an acoustic space, receiving an input audio signal, separating the input audio signal into low-frequency components and high-frequency components, and dividing the BRIR of the acoustic space into a first portion that occurs before a first time and a second portion that occurs after the first time. The method further includes generating a first component of an output audio signal based on the high-frequency components of the input audio signal and the first portion of the BRIR, generating a second component of the output audio signal based on the high-frequency components of the input audio signal and the second portion of the BRIR, generating a third component of the output audio signal based on the low-frequency components of the input audio signal and the BRIR, and outputting the output audio signal.
