Patent attributes
Examples of the disclosure describe systems and methods for presenting an audio signal to a user of a wearable head device. In an example, a received first input audio signal is processed to generate a left output audio signal and a right output audio signal presented to ears of the user. Processing the first input audio signal comprises applying a delay process to the first input audio signal to generate a left audio signal and a right audio signal; adjusting gains of the left audio signal and the right audio signal; applying head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) to the left and right audio signals to generate the left and right output audio signals. Applying the delay process to the first input audio signal comprises applying an interaural time delay (ITD) to the first input audio signal, the ITD determined based on the source location.
