VAAE at DAFx18

The International Conference On Digital Audio Effects in Portugal

The DAFx audio technology conference took place this year in the idyllic seaside resort Aveiro in Portugal. Dylan Menzies presented a paper Surround Sound without Rear Loudspeakers: Multichannel Compensated Amplitude Panning and Ambisonics. This extends previous work on compensated panning to 3 or more loudspeakers, using an efficient formulation. The comparison is made with Ambisonic reproduction using the same loudspeaker layout.
