Abstract

The second generation of the Virtual Acoustic Technology (VAT) Laboratory at McGill University features a new real-time auralizer with a feedback canceller developed by CCRMA at Stanford University, allowing for the creation of a virtual acoustic environment with exceptionally high gain. As the first part of a two-paper study, we employ a 1:1 microphone to speaker configuration method to capture impulse responses from two performance halls. Then the halls are “recreated” acoustically with the VAT system in the studio and an acoustic analysis is performed on the real halls and on the “virtual halls” to investigate the effectiveness of the reproduction system.
