    Abstract: In some embodiments, virtualization methods for generating a binaural signal in response to channels of a multi-channel audio signal, which apply a binaural room impulse response (BRIR) to each channel including by using at least one feed-back delay network (FDN) to apply a common late reverberation to a downmix of the channels. In some embodiments, input signal channels are processed in a first processing path to apply to each channel a direct response and early reflection portion of a single-channel BRIR for the channel, and the downmix of the channels is processed in a second processing path including at least one FDN which applies the common late reverberation. Typically, the common late reverberation emulates collective macro attributes of late reverberation portions of at least some of the single-channel BRIRs. Other aspects are headphone virtualizers configured to perform any embodiment of the method.

    Abstract: A first vector quantization process may be applied to two or more parameter values along a first dimension of the N-dimensional parameter set to produce a first set of quantized values. Two or more parameter prediction values may be calculated for a second dimension of the N-dimensional parameter set based, at least in part, on one or more values of the first set of quantized values. Prediction residual values may be calculated based, at least in part, on the parameter prediction values. A second vector quantization process may be applied to the prediction residual values to produce a second set of quantized values. These processes may be extended to any number of dimensions. Corresponding inverse vector quantization processes may be performed.
