Multibin: a Binaural Audition Tool

MultiBin is a new tool for binaural audition of multiple sound sources in a user definable environment. Although designed to be flexible in its application, its primary function is to provide dynamic multi-channel binaural simulation. It is built upon two new Csound binaural reverberation opcodes. An early reflection opcode, based on an image source method and a Head-Related Transfer Function interpolation algorithm previously introduced by the authors provides dynamic source and listener location. This is complemented by a later reverberation opcode which provides a diffuse reverb based on a parametric Feedback Delay Network model which considers interaural coherence.
