Abstract:
The methods and apparatus described herein provides technical solutions to the technical problems facing crosstalk cancellation for 3D audio virtualization. One technical solution includes preconditioning audio signals based on crosstalk canceller characteristics and based on characteristics of sound sources at intended locations in 3D space. To provide these technical solutions, the systems and methods described herein include an audio virtualizer and an audio preconditioner. In particular, the audio virtualizer includes a crosstalk canceller, and the audio preconditioner preconditions audio signals based on characteristics of a crosstalk cancellation system and based on characteristics of a binaural synthesis system or intended input source location in space. This solution improves the overall accuracy of virtualization of 3D sound sources and reduces or eliminates audio artifacts such as incorrect localization, inter-channel sound level imbalance, or a sound level that is higher or lower than intended.

Claim (Index 16):
The immersive sound method of  claim 12 , further including receiving a tuning parameter, wherein the generation of the compensation array output is based on the received tuning parameter.
