A commonly-accessible toolchain for live streaming music events with higher-order ambisonic audio and 4k 360 vision
PublicationAn immersive live stream is especially interesting in the ongoing development of telepresence tools, especially in the virtual reality (VR) or mixed reality (MR) domain. This paper explores the remote and immersive way of enabling telepresence for the audience to high-fidelity music performance using freely-available and easily-accessible tools. A functional VR live-streaming toolchain, comprising 360 vision and higher-order ambisonic...

Reverberation divergence in VR applications
PublicationThe aim of this project was to investigate the correlation between virtual reality (VR) imagery and ambisonic sound. With the increasing popularity of VR applications, understanding how sound is perceived in virtual environments is crucial for enhancing the immersiveness of the experience. By examining the relationship between visual scenes and sound scenes, this research attempts to explore how the interaction between vision and...

Architecture Design of a Networked Music Performance Platform for a Chamber Choir
PublicationThis paper describes an architecture design process for Networked Music Performance (NMP) platform for medium-sized conducted music ensembles, based on remote rehearsals of Academic Choir of Gdańsk University of Technology. The issues of real-time remote communication, in-person music performance, and NMP are described. Three iterative steps defining and extending the architecture of the NMP platform with additional features to...

Creating a Remote Choir Performance Recording Based on an Ambisonic Approach
PublicationThe aim of this paper is three-fold. First, the basics of binaural and ambisonic techniques are briefly presented. Then, details related to audio-visual recordings of a remote performance of the Academic Choir of the Gdańsk University of Technology are shown. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, artists had a choice, namely, to stay at home and not perform or stay at home and perform. In fact, staying at home brought in the possibility...

Pursuing Listeners’ Perceptual Response in Audio-Visual Interactions - Headphones vs Loudspeakers: A Case Study
PublicationThis study investigates listeners’ perceptual responses in audio-visual interactions concerning binaural spatial audio. Audio stimuli are coupled with or without visual cues to the listeners. The subjective test participants are tasked to indicate the direction of the incoming sound while listening to the audio stimulus via loudspeakers or headphones with the head-related transfer function (HRTF) plugin. First, the methodology...

Evaluation of Six Degrees of Freedom 3D Audio Orchestra Recording and Playback using multi-point Ambisonic interpolation
PublicationThis paper describes a strategy for recording sound and enabling six-degrees-of-freedom playback, making use of multiple simultaneous and synchronized Higher Order Ambisonics (HOA) recordings. Such a strategy enables users to navigate in a simulated 3D space and listen to the six-degrees-of-freedom recordings from different perspectives. For the evaluation of the proposed approach, an Unreal Engine-based navigable 3D audiovisual...

Production of six-degrees-of-freedom (6DoF) navigable audio using 30 Ambisonic microphones
PublicationThis paper describes a method for planning, recording, and post-production of six-degrees-of-freedom audio recorded with multiple 3rd order Ambisonic microphone arrays. The description is based on the example of recordings conducted in August 2020 with the Poznan Philharmonic Orchestra using 30 units of Zylia ZM-1S. A convenient way to prepare and organize such a big project is proposed – this involves details of stage planning,...

Techniki wielokanałowe wykorzystywane w koncertach i nagraniach muzycznych na odległość
PublicationW czasie pandemii koronawirusa COVID-19 nowego znaczenia nabrały możliwości transmisji dźwięku z obrazem – zwłaszcza do pracy zdalnej, która w przypadku muzyków jest szczególnym wyzwaniem zarówno w kontekście wspólnych ćwiczeń i prób, jak i koncertów. Wynikła konieczność wieloźródłowego połączenia ujawniła potrzebę uprzestrzennienia dźwięku w celu łatwiejszej lokalizacji źródeł dźwięku. Tworzenie zdalnych nagrań muzycznych stało...

Chór wirtualny
PublicationWiosna roku 2020 została zapisana emocjami, które należy zaliczać do tych niepożądanych. Praca on-line stała się jedyną możliwą formą pracy z zespołem. Prekursorem pomysłu wirtualnego chóru był amerykański kompozytor i dyrygent Eric Whitacre. Eric wybrał do wykonania przez chór wirtualny utwory posiadające wspólne cechy. Kolejnym poruszanym zagadnieniem jest stworzenie przestrzennego dźwięku. Technologia na której opiera się dźwięk...

Comparison of sound of organ pipes in contemporary and historical instruments
PublicationThe aim of this research is to examine the differences in the timbre of organ pipes’ sound between a historical and a contemporary organ instrument. The historical instrument is the Oliwa organ from Gdansk, Poland, and the contemporary one is from Kartuzy, Poland. Recordings are made of single notes played by an open labial pipe that belongs to the Principal rank. The analyses and comparison of several sound features compatible...

Eksternalizacja w binauralnej ambisonicznej auralizacji źródeł kierunkowych
PublicationW artykule przedstawiono najważniejsze składniki procesu skutecznego renderowania trójwymiarowego obrazu dźwiękowego za pomocą słuchawek. W tym celu badany jest stopień oddziaływania poszczególnych czynników wpływających na eksternalizację dźwięku: śledzenie położenia głowy (ang. head tracking), indywidualne funkcje przenoszenia głowy (HRTF – Head Related Transfer Function, odnoszące się do matematycznej funkcji propagacji dźwięku...

Examination of the factors influencing binaural rendering on headphones with the use of directivity patterns
PublicationThis paper presents a study on the influence of the directional sound sources with the use of the directivity patterns. This contribution also includes a comparison to the work done by Wendt et al., where several directivity pattern designs used to gradually control the auditory source distance in a room were showed. While the tests of Wendt et al. were done by auralizing source and room using a loudspeaker ring in an anechoic...
