💖 MAKEMHR(1) — bestie edition 💖

okay so you're looking at makemhr, which lives in section 1 of the manual (aka User Commands), and honestly? it's giving HRTF Processing and Composition Utility energy. no cap. let's get into it 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

makemhr — HRTF Processing and Composition Utility 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

makemhr <command> [<option>...]

like… you pick a command, and then you sprinkle options on top. that's the whole vibe. periodt.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so bestie, makemhr is literally the HRTF Processing and Composition Utility. that's the whole thing. it processes, it composes, it slays ✨

💜 Commands: 💜

these are the big moves. pick one, you don't need all of them (except the ones you do 👀).

  • -m, --make-mhr — makes an OpenAL Soft compatible HRTF data set 🎧. by default it dumps the output to: ./oalsoft_hrtf_%r.mhr
  • -t, --make-tab — makes the built-in table that gets used when you're compiling OpenAL Soft 🛠️. by default it dumps the output to: ./hrtf_tables.inc
  • -h, --help — shows you this help information. the classic "help me help you" moment 🙈

💅 OPTIONS 💅

these are your little knobs and dials, bestie. twist responsibly 🎀

  • -r=<rate> — changes the data set sample rate to whatever value you give it, and resamples the HRIRs to match 🔄
  • -f=<points> — overrides the FFT window size. if you don't say anything, it defaults to the first power-of-two that fits four times the number of HRIR points 🪟
  • -e={on|off} — toggles diffuse-field equalization. default: on 🎚️
  • -s={on|off} — toggles the surface-weighted diffuse-field average. default: on 🌊
  • -l={<dB>|none} — sets a limit on the magnitude range of the diffuse-field average. default: 24.00 📏
  • -w=<points> — sets the size of the truncation window that gets applied after minimum-phase reconstruction. default: 32 ✂️
  • -i=<filename> — tells it which HRIR definition file to use. if you don't, it defaults to stdin 📥
  • -o=<filename> — tells it where to write the output file. this one overrides the default that the command picked for you 👑. and if you use %r in there, it gets substituted with the data set sample rate 🔁
fr fr, <rate>, <points>, <dB>, <filename> are all placeholders — swap in your actual values, don't type the angle brackets literally 💀

and that's the whole page, bestie 🫶 this was makemhr version 1.15, dated July 2014. iconic. ate. no crumbs. go make some HRTFs 💖✨🎀
