HQPlayer Embedded Discussion [2021-2022]

My 2 main HRTF sources:
Listen and MIT KEMAR
But I personally prefer Listen.

  1. go Listen’s Demo Sound page. Try all to find the “roundest” one.
  2. go Listen’s Download page to get your roundest file.
  3. choose “Compensated” IR WAV files as listed. Because the files are all L+R mixed so you have to use Audacity to split it to L mono and R mono. (deg is counter clockwise–I know it’s painful.)
    030-000 deg as L main
    330-000 deg as R main
    000-000 deg as C and LFE
    105-000 deg as LS
    225-000 deg as RS
    150-000 deg as LS rear
    210-000 deg as RS rear
    045-045 deg as L top front
    315-045 deg as R top front
    135-045 deg as L top rear
    225-045 deg as R top rear
  4. follow my screenshot to link and set the HRTF files to designated channels. (my screen is small so ch12 didn’t show but the setting is the same way.)
  5. in macOS: use BlackHole (yes, now you definitely need BlackHole 16ch to extract 12 channels of the ATMOS contents) as input for HQPlayer Embedded or Desktop.
  6. enable HQPlayer then play your Apple ATMOS Music.
