Room auralization (Kleiner, 1992) is a process by which live or recorded sounds can be presented to a listener so that the listener perceives them to be localized in a specific point in space, in a specific room environment. This is achieved by modeling the entire acoustic transfer function between the source location in the room to the listener`s eardrums. This technique can take every detail of the acoustic space into account, including the loudspeaker or headphone-to-ear transfer function. The model can be implemented in real time, with no extraneous latency, using Lake`s Huron convolution techniques. The work presented focuses on how these techniques can be modified to accommodate rotation of the listener`s head, while maintaining a spatially located room experience.:
