Abstract

Directional impulse responses were collected from stringed instruments, including guitar, mandolin, violin, and hardanger (Norwegian folk) fiddle. Impulse responses were recorded simultaneously from 12 microphones spaced uniformly at the vertices of an icosahedron. Software tools were created which allow a user to position him/herself at points around the virtual instrument, with signal sources including plucked and bowed string physical models, or any external sound source. Two multi-channel spherical audio display devices have been constructed, allowing sound to be projected in a performance space using the measured (or modified) transfer functions.
