A room compensation method by modification of reverberant audio objects
A room compensation method by modification of reverberant audio objects
Conventional channel-based room equalisation can reduce overall colouration caused by the room response, however it cannot separately correct the colouration caused by the late and early parts of the response, or consider the reverberance in the source signal. A room compensation method is developed here for a source signal in which the dry source sound and the associated target reverberant response are encoded separately, which is possible in an object-based audio framework. The target response is modified using the reproduction room response. Subject to some conditions the combined response approximates the target, with accurate early and late equalisations, reverberant balance, and decay timing. Stochastic assumptions are used to simplify the processing, enabling efficient real-time processing of the encoded audio.

Abstract
Conventional channel-based room equalisation can reduce overall colouration caused by the room response, however it cannot separately correct the colouration caused by the late and early parts of the response, or consider the reverberance in the source signal. A room compensation method is developed here for a source signal in which the dry source sound and the associated target reverberant response are encoded separately, which is possible in an object-based audio framework. The target response is modified using the reproduction room response. Subject to some conditions the combined response approximates the target, with accurate early and late equalisations, reverberant balance, and decay timing. Stochastic assumptions are used to simplify the processing, enabling efficient real-time processing of the encoded audio.
