Calculation of Reverberation Time (RT60) from the Impulse Response

Encouraged by Hilmar, I've decided to update the answer with all the steps necessary to calculate the Reverberation Time from a scratch. Presumably, it will be useful for others interested in this ...

How do real-time convolution plugins process audio so quickly

Real-time low-latency partitioned convolution reverb with a long impulse response works by dividing the impulse response into unequally sized partitions. The shortest partitions (blocks) are at the ...

How do impulse response guitar amp simulators work?

When talking about modeling, there are two things that usually get modeled: 1. the guitar amp, and 2. the speaker cabinet. Only the latter is modeled by an impulse response, which means that the ...

This is how my professor is finding the frequency response of an LTI system when given the impulse response. Is this wrong?

Your professor is right, and you're almost right too. The filter is clearly an FIR filter, but because its frequency response can be expressed as a geometric series, a recursive implementation is ...

Why do linear phase filters have symmetric impulse responses?

Actually, I think I see why. $$X(j\Omega) = |X(j\Omega)|e^{-j\theta(\Omega)}$$ $|X(j\Omega)|$ is purely real, and therefore if we take the IFT it is even and symmetric. $\theta(\Omega)= a\Omega$ ...

Meaning of arrow head in dirac delta?

On the wiki page for the Dirac delta function, you can find one meaning of the arrow. It somehow means that is not "defined" as a constant defined value, but more as a factor applied to ...
