Abstract

Vector base amplitude panning (VBAP) is a generic method for virtual source positioning. It generalizes the pair-wise panning paradigm to triplet-wise panning paradigm, which can be used inthree-dimensional loudspeaker setups. The VBAP implementation in MAX/MSP software presented in this paper is a powerful tool to produce spatialized computer music pieces that can be presented with di erent loudspeaker setups. Virtual sources are positioned by de ning the virtual source directions as (azimuth, elevation) coordinates. The spread of the virtual sources can also be controlled.
