Hi,

My experience with earplug was that the external itself does the interpolation for you and there's no need to use line to avoid clicks. Feeding it directly with and angle with decimals works just fine. Also even using this 5 degrees resolutio, due to the interpolation I guess, it feels really smooth. Actually I have to say it works fairly well and maybe the only drawback it is that it's a bit dsp intensive.

Salut!

Hi,

I'm not sure you need to smooth the angle, if you have a look at the hrtf set (http://sound.media.mit.edu/KEMAR.html) it only has 5 degrees precision in yaw and 10 degrees in elevation. So if I'm not wrong your smoothing as no effect.

Hello all,

I am trying to use [earplug~] for a sound installation of mine, but I ran into a problem that I can't think of how to solve. I am feeding the angle values to [earplug~] through a [line] to smooth them out, but when the angle changes from 359.9 to 0 there is an audible click (since line is actually ramping down the value from 359.9 to 0 going through all the other angles). How is the best way of solving this?

I am considering to fold the angle function so that effectively it only ranges from 90 and 270 degrees (180 is the centre for [earplug~]). By doing that, both 0 and 360 would become 180, thus avoiding the unwanted click, but that would mean that there is would be no distinction between sounds coming from the front and the back of the listener.

Do you guys have any better ideas on how to solve this?

Thanks a lot!
Gilberto
