Head-rotated BRIRs were acquired with 3.6° angular resolution for each of 13 different receiver positions, using a custom-made head-rotation system that was automated and integrated with the Huddersfield Acoustical Analysis Research Toolbox. The BRIRs are provided in the SOFA format. The library also contains impulse responses captured using a first-order Ambisonic microphone and an omnidirectional microphone. It is expected that the database would be useful for studying the perception of spatial attributes in a six degrees-of-freedom context. Folder Structure The impulse responses are organised into two main folders: * Binaural: Contains the SOFA files and MATLAB files for each position, with a 3.6° angular resolution, recorded with the Neumann KU100 binaural head. * FOA: Contains the First Order Ambisonics audio files in A format and B format for each individual position, recorded with an Sennheiser Ambeo microphone in an end-fire configuration. Naming Convention The files are named after their relative position on the stage and the distance from the stage: * C = Centre * L = Left * LW = Left Wide License This project is licensed under the CC-BY-4.0 License - see the License.txt file for details Publication This database was presented at the Audio Engineering Society 146th International Convention.
