Why do we need Personalization for an accurate Virtual Studio experience?

It is important to understand that human ears are as unique as fingerprints. Your brain has been trained from an early age to hear sounds around you based on your unique physiology. Modeling the effect of your complex ear features on sound waves is called a Head-related transfer function (HRTF). It is extremely critical in rendering an immersive experience that sounds natural and perceived outside the head while wearing headphones.  

However, accurately measuring HRTFs using state-of-the-art methods is a time-consuming, tedious, and expensive process. Measuring your HRTF in the lab could take several hours, requiring you to sit in an anechoic chamber to create the measurements.

The AI engine of Immerse Virtual Studio plugin models your Personalized HRTF profile in less than 60 seconds, without ever leaving your chair!
