Updated the equalisation of most BRIRs in the dataset. A new room target curve has been applied with reduced treble roll-off. Inverse filter 'Room_Target_Inverse' has been updated accordingly for removal of the (updated) room target curve if required.
Added a set of reduced reverberation BRIRs for room R11_P2 (Small_Broadcast_Studio_Pos_2_400ms).
Latest low frequency BRIRs were integrated into rooms R07_P1, R07_P2 (Conference_Room) & R35 (Small_Room_E) resulting in reduced low frequency reverberation. Resulting low frequency response is now more consistent with similar sized rooms.
Updated R05B_400ms BRIRs: modified source speaker position for a selection of azimuths (-25 deg to -90 deg) resulting in an improved and more symmetrical stereo image.
Updated E-APO configurations.
v7.2.0

Notable Changes
Added a set of alternative BRIRs for room R22_P2 (Large_Room_Pos_2) with reduced reverberation (RT60 = 400ms).
Added filter HpCFs\Additional_Filters\Room_Target_Inverse.wav which can be used to remove the smooth downward slope that was applied to the rooms.
Updated most BRIRs with improvements to low frequency equalisation and reductions in low frequency reverberation.
Added additional azimuths (-35,-40,35,40 degrees) for rooms R05B, R06P2 and R07.
Replaced the room R17 (Room_HU201) BRIRs with their reduced reverberation alternative BRIRs, leaving a single set of BRIRs for R17.
Updated E-APO configs.
v7.1.0
4 years ago
Notable Changes
Added a set of alternative BRIRs with reduced reverberation time (400ms) for room R20 (Seminar Room RWTH Aachen), position 1.
Updated E-APO configurations.
Updated the equalisation of all BRIRs with improved pinna compensation for circumaural headphones. Compatibility filters for on ear headphones and in ear headphones have been updated. The resulting equalisation for on ear and in ear headphones remains unchanged.
Added averaged HpCFs for the new selection of headphones
Added an averaged HpCF for Bose QuietComfort Series
Added an averaged HpCF for Focal Clear/Stellia
Reductions in reverberation and optimisations made to the frequency responses of the following rooms:
R05B_400ms (Audio_Lab_No_Absorbers_400ms)
R06P2 (Seminar_Room_TUI_Pos_2)
R09_P2 (Adream_Lab_Pos_2)
R14 (Classroom)
R17_350ms (Room_HU201_350ms)
R18 (Rehab_Room)
R19_350ms (Coupled_Rooms_350ms)
R32 (Concert_Hall) - RT60 reduced to approx. 400ms.
R37 (Lecture_Room_B)

Notable Changes
Integrated rooms R06P2 (Seminar_Room_TUI_Pos_2), R08_350ms (Room_Spirit_350ms), and R21_400ms (Chamber_Music_Hall_400ms) with alternative low frequency BRIRs to reduce reverberation in the low frequencies.
v6.6.0
4 years ago
Notable Changes
Added new position (P2) for room R39 (small room G) BRIRs utilising a different HRTF (Neumann KU100).
Replaced the room R14 (Classroom) BRIRs with their reduced reverberation BRIRs, leaving a single set of BRIRs for R14. Updated E-APO configs accordingly.
Improved low frequency equalisation for rooms R08 (room spirit), R13 (office), R19 (coupled rooms), R28 (small room C), and R35 (small room E)
Reduced amount of reverberation for R07P3 (conference room position 3) and virtual rooms R31(studio B) and R36(studio E)
Integrated rooms R07P3 (conference room position 3), R19 (coupled rooms), R23 (small room A), and R28 (small room C) with alternative subwoofer RIRs to reduce reverberation in low frequencies
Updated headphone type compatibility filters to 24bit WAVs.
Updated E-APO configs for R05: set L and R azimuths to -30 and +30 deg respectively
Reduced the amount of reverberation of most virtual rooms.
Minor improvements to low frequency response equalisation and subwoofer IR integration for most rooms.
