    摘要: Systems and methods discussed herein can change a frame of reference for a first spatial audio signal. The first spatial audio signal can include signal components representing audio information from different depths or directions relative to an audio capture location associated with an audio capture source device with a first frame of reference relative to an environment. Changing the frame of reference can include receiving a component of the first spatial audio signal, receiving information about a second frame of reference relative to the same environment, determining a difference between the first and second frames of reference, and, using the determined difference between the first and second frames of reference, determining a first filter to use to generate at least one component of a second spatial audio signal that is based on the first spatial audio signal and is referenced to the second frame of reference.

    摘要: A loudspeaker system can include a first loudspeaker driver provided in a substantially fixed spatial relationship relative to a microphone. The loudspeaker driver can be tuned, for example automatically and without user input. In an example, the tuning can include receiving transfer function reference information about the first loudspeaker driver and the microphone, and receiving information about a desired acoustic response for the loudspeaker system. The tuning can include determining a simulated response for the loudspeaker system using a first input signal and the transfer function reference information, and can include providing the first input signal to the first loudspeaker driver. In response to the first input signal, an actual response for the loudspeaker driver can be received using the microphone. A compensation filter can be determined for the loudspeaker system based on the determined simulated response and the received actual response for the loudspeaker system.

    摘要: An audio encoder can parse a digital audio signal into a plurality of frames, each frame including a specified number of audio samples, perform a transform of the audio samples of each frame to produce a plurality of frequency-domain coefficients for each frame, partition the plurality of frequency-domain coefficients for each frame into a plurality of bands for each frame, each band having bit data that represents a number of bits allocated for the band, and encode the digital audio signal and difference data to a bit stream (e.g., an encoded digital audio signal). The difference data can produce the full bit data when combined with estimate data that can be computed from data present in the bit stream. The difference data can be compressed to a smaller size than the full bit data, which can reduce the space required in the bit stream.

    摘要: An audio signal processing system can be configured to provide virtualized audio information in a three-dimensional soundfield using at least a pair of loudspeakers or headphones. The system can include an audio input configured to receive audio program information that includes at least N discrete audio signals, a first virtualization processor circuit configured to generate intermediate virtualized audio information by filtering M of the N audio signals, and a second virtualization processor circuit configured to generate further virtualized audio information by differently filtering K of the N audio signals, wherein K, M, and N are integers. The system can include an audio signal combination circuit to combine the intermediate virtualized audio information with at least one of the N audio signals, other than the M audio signals, to render fewer than N audio signals for transmission to a second virtualization processor circuit.

    摘要: Systems and methods to provide distortion sensing, prevention, and/or distortion-aware bass enhancement in audio systems can be implemented in a variety of applications. Sensing circuitry can generate statistics based on an input signal received for which an acoustic output is generated. In various embodiments, the statistics can be used such that a multi-notch filter can be used to provide input to a speaker to generate the acoustic output. In various embodiments, the statistics from the sensing circuitry can be provided to a bass parameter controller coupled to bass enhancement circuitry to operatively provide parameters to the bass enhancement circuitry. The bass enhancement circuitry can provide a bass enhanced signal for generation of the acoustic output, based on the parameters. Various combinations of multi-notch filter and bass enhancement circuitry using statistics from sensing circuitry can be implemented to provide an enhanced acoustic output. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.
