Abstract

A method and apparatus may be used to perform personalized audio virtualization. The apparatus may include a speaker, a headphone (over-the-ear, on-ear, or in-ear), a microphone, a computer, a mobile device, a home theater receiver, a television, a Blu-ray (BD) player, a compact disc (CD) player, a digital media player, or the like. The apparatus may be configured to receive an audio signal, scale the audio signal, and perform a convolution and reverberation on the scaled audio signal to produce a convolved audio signal. The apparatus may be configured to filter the convolved audio signal and process the filtered audio signal for output.
