HighDefinition Impulse Responses Samples (IRS) for Viper4Android (19 AUGUST 2015)

HighDefinition Impulse Responses Samples (IRS) for Viper4Android
Final Updates. Enjoy.
From the makers of HighDefinition Sound Engine HDSE
Convolution and Impulse Responses?
Convolution is the process where a single sample of a sound is multiplied by every sample of another sound. It is different from the plain multiplication of two sounds where a single sample of the first sound is multiplied by the corresponding single sample of a second sound.
Impulse Responses or IRs are captured by recording how a space responds to a full range of frequencies (typically 20Hz to 20,000Hz). This is achieved by playing back a burst (impulse) of a full range of frequencies within the space and recording it. For more accurate results it is common to use a sine-sweep across the audible frequency range. The recorded IR is nothing more an audio file that can be imported into a convolution software to recreate the sampled space digitally and finally export to WAV or IRS.

Rename your thread to show the irs name
I will try it
Suggestions:
Write more info the all 5 BBEs or name each irs with an unique identifier.
EDIT: If this is the topic for all your irs.
Maybe you can renamt like BSD's IRS to show its yours

Hey op,
did you also want to include instructions for users as well? I had to refer to the viper4android thread to see how I can utilize the irs files

Re: HD IRS 10 Sept 2013
Wow @BSDgeek_Jake, great job. I've been using the BBE-2 sample and it has crystal clear vocals, big bass but not boomy, nice soundstage. The vocals seem to be a bit more up front with BBE-2 as compared to BBE-1. Sounds really good, keep it up :highfive: :good::good:

What is the difference between all 5 variations?
edit: I like the bbe2 most. It'll be good if you can rename the different variations to easily differentiate them. I change irs often for different purpose such as games, music or movie.

would be helpful to know what exactly are the differences between the 5 BBE parameters.

BBE 2 IRS sample
I just have to say again that this IRS sample, BBE 2, has been my new favorite since it was posted. Thank you so much @BSDgeek_Jake. :highfive:

BBE 1 is my Fav... its close to Acoustics. High n Mid Frequency has clear emphasis including applied low pass filter, Low Frequency is controlled boom.
I will be renaming all my IRS to listening flavours... so Stay Tuned

Get the best of S3's sound

Hi,
I am not much of a hard core audiophile and I can settle with almost any sound quality, but I recently bought a decent mid-range IEM, the Sony HM1. So, I wonder if there is any way to be sure that I get the best S3 has to give. I use:
-Sony HM1
-Rocket player (paid version, the one with the unlocked equalizer).
-At least 192bit rated MP3s.
-Volume enhancer mod
So, is there any other mod, program or anything else that can take full advantage of S3's potential, if any? Thanks!

I posted these questions right after I read some pages of that threat and I was just hoping for a medium-sized sum or a small guide with the steps necessary. I will move my question there then, thanks and sorry.

one word. poweramp. no other mods/apps needed. Best audio comes from poweramp. Must be stupid to argue against that.

In all honesty, to get the best sound you need good source and as you rightly did, at least 192kbps audio. But I have numerous songs that sound much better at 320 than 192 and when played back side by side, you hear the diff. My father who is half deaf heard it.
My recommendation for music is simple, highest bitrate you can afford given the storage you have (getting a 64gb Micro SD card remedies that issue quickly, the Samsung model is the best i've use so far), equalisers and volume normalisers are just to flavour the music to your taste, more bass here, a little mid there, or to compensate for a particular bias your headphone may have. I use a Senheisser HD 201 and HD 202. The 201 is flat and pure, the 202 is bassy and wild so i adjust to suit. FYI I'm current using JetAudio Pro with the AM3D Effects set to 40 and 50.
Hope this helps.
Btw, if you just looking for louder, the tablets, Nexus 7 and the like have higher volume outputs on their headphone jacks so be aware of that.

It sure did, thanks! Having high bitrate and a decent IEM, I just wanted to be sure that S3's hardware has no room for improvements, a better kernel or some other tweak.
About Nexus 7, are you sure it has higher output? I have both S3 and Nexus 7 and I just tried it, on the same volume level, S3 is way more louder. Just bear in mind that I used this sound enhancement tweak on S3.

Poweramp, check.
About the other two, could you be more specific? I'm a noob. About the Pure audio, I know that's it's a flashable zip, does it give me after the flashing a app that tweaks the sound? And what about wolfson sound engine, could you please give me a link?
Currently I use googy-max kernel, which enables the wolfson sound engine via STweaks. Would it be better to use something else? Maybe all of these questions have already been answered, but it's very difficult to collect all the info available. Thank you all!

Sure! i use googymax too with the wolfson engine, my settings are: headphone equalizer: Enable WITHOUT saturation Prevention.
EQ Presets: Use graphical equalizer
at the bottom of stweaks i turn on DAC direct and DAC oversampling but leave the others.
Pure audio - flash the zip, make sure that DSP manager isn't installed otherwise it'll do nothing. remove it with titanium backup if you hvae it.
pure audio doesn't give you options to adjust because you don't need it. it won't give you any indication that its running when you're listening to music either... but you'll know if you've done it right
If you do feel the need to adjust eq, then use the eq in Stweaks, or poweramp even if you find it easier.
Hope it helps!

There are many EQs for android and some DSP software like beats audio.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1525226
Using an EQ can boast the volume of some music.
Lets go through a few things first however.
2 main things determine how loud something will sound.
The hardware, the speakers, the pre amp, the DAC and such.
You can't change this with any software
The volume of the audio file.
An audio file is at it's loudest when it's ~0dB. Most music is mastered to come close to this, although some aren't.
The best way to make all your audio as loud as it can be without sacrificing quality, is to use replay gain.
Most music players for android have replay gain as a function, how you use it is very much dependant on the player app, so you'd have to read a guide specific to your player.
The aim of replay gain is simple, it scans an audio file, finds it's highest volume and brings it up to 0. So that's the file as loud as it can be,
Now, onto using some other app to boast volume. One can use eq to increase volume by boasting the whole frequency range beyond 0. The drawback to this is that it creates a distortion, however you may not be able to hear this so it's up to you.
My favourite eq for android is music volume eq
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=hr.podlanica&hl=en
Play around with that and you might find you can boast your volume a little.
To summary a little.
Look into replay gain, this is your best option for getting correct loudness. If it still doesn't sound loud enough, get some speakers

try viper4android..you can search for it here in xda..
i've been using it for about 4months now and its working great..boosts the overall volume of my neo v.. you will be amazed by the tweaks included..just play with the tweaks to your liking and you'll never look for other sound mods again..
note:i'm using a cheap soundmagic earphones(es18) and viper4android made it sound like a highend earphones.

Sound and Audio Mods Discussion

Hello Guys,
So, audio is a completely new territory for me, and as such I have very little to no idea about the current audio mods or the individual audio packages. I wanted to discuss the various mods available currently and their current effect on our devices, the reason this is necessary is because although we have the Marshmallow on our devices, the hardware is getting a tad bit old and a mod which might be compatible with our software may not get the best optimised output from the hardware. Hope you are getting me there. I wanted to discuss the currently available options by the means of trial and testing using 5-10 mods, or gathering reviews from people who are actually using these mods, based on their performance on Phone Speaker, Headphones, AUX, Wireless Speakers and dock.
Going through XDA I found a couple of mods which I am listing (kindly add to the list if you can) below, if anyone has tried these please put our reviews and opinions in the thread,
1. Ac!D Audio (only for SG S3) *
2. XtremeBeats SuperMod *
3. eXtremeBeats Audio Mod *
4. Viper4Android
5. Dolby Digital Plus
6. Beats Audio
7. Dolby Atmos
8. Pure Audio Engine 2.0
9. MaxxAudio (#)
10. IRS SoundMod
11. Am3D Zirene Audio Fx
* - Mod Packages containing Multiple individual audio Mods
# - Stable version not available for android M
>> Another thing that I wanted to clarify was that, each mod works differently on different devices so i would prefer a non biased opinion based on usage and not on the popularity of the mod. Many times even a single mod can play better than a mod package containing multiple mods, hence i'll try to put forward the best audio configuration by the time this thread runs it's course. Kindly Help me do it
Let's Make the best audio Possible!
Cheers,

I'd stay with stock audio stuff, afaik the i9300 has a high-quality DAC (don't quote me on that) but no kernel is enabling the full potential of it(CN).
All equlizers seem to add virtual "surround" which IMO ruines the quality of whatever I'm listening to.

true that, virtual surround is useless unless we have an external sound system, but i think boeffla kernel does use the full DAC potential ? or not?

No, it has not; proof (read whole thread).
Looking at the features of the boeffla kernel, there's no "high-quality audio" feature.
Why are you using the boeffla kernel if running CM13? As far as I see there were never a update to fully support CM13.

i read the thread, seems we are doomed, unless a developer actually has implemented the sound feature and just has failed to mention it. Anyways are there any active kernel developers for s3? boeffla has given the kernels an eol status, maybe we could request any other developer to include the sound feature in his kernel.

As I said, it's a waste of time.
24bit 192kHz?
First of all, 24 bit? Unless you're modifying sound files like a pro with a application which even supports 24 bit sound on Android (which I suspects does) exist, you won't benefit in sound quality.
192kHz? This is just too much; you ears can't even pick up that noise and sound files in that res are heavy.

i agree with you on the 192kHz , but 24bit is actually good, if we use some good quality headphones, the sound files may become heavy though, i agree.. althought xtremeMusic does resample the sound to make it better, best have a look.

Professionals record their audio in 24 bit which makes the audio easier to edit as there's more depth.
It does not add quality to the sound at all. You never export a 24 bit audio file to public, do more homework

meh.. i have a lot of school work going on and there's this more homework.. meh.. guess i'll study about audio coming Sunday, -_- too much to learn xD

I will have to hijack your thread to announce that both of you should do MORE homework on audio. The Wolfson WM1811A Audio Hub Codec, because it has DACs, ADCs, FLLs and much more than just a DAC, is in fact capable of 24bit/96kHz.
The thing about bit depth in audio has been disputed over and over, it is just a matter of preference really, with FLAC and other uncompressed formats gaining popularity with the rise of quality in the hardware department. Going to audio editing, even a 15-year old can use Audacity. Not to talk about Sony's Sound Forge Audio Studio.
Another thing is that AGNi Kernel, at least for i9305 has Boeffla Sound Engine, that coupled with Wolfson Preset 5 or 7, makes listening to music, ofc in combination with Viper4Android and PowerAmp, a total dream. Oh, and also one more thing, IRS SoundMod is a package of Impulse Response Samples (hence the name IRS) for Viper4Android, so that is no sound mod.

I have i9300 on stock 4.3 android and anything that alters the sound, any player like poweramp that alters the sound by resampling just make it worser. Stock player and Aimp player gives the cleanest sound. Aimp is good because you can raise the gain............up to 3db is enough.

Samsung won't integrate 24-bit/192kHz that the WM1811 sound chip is capable to their kernel for a reason, we may never know what it is but they won't for a reason.
Maybe the Wolfson WM1811 data sheet we're seeing are false, maybe not.
Whether it is for stability reasons, when Samsung doesn't use the ‘full’ potential of the chip it might be for the good of its users.

Please go to following forum and request Hi-res playback for Honor 8 Pro

I am sure most poeple know that PowerAmp is arguably (Or unarguably) the BEST music player on planet right now. It also supports 24 bit 192 kHz Hi-res playback on most phones.
But sadly our phone with HiSilicon Hi6403 (32 bit/192 kHz and DSD lossless format support) doesnt feature in them.
I have submitted our phone's details on poweramp forums for the same.
Pls do the same as it'll get their attention if many people ask for it.
Here's their forum thread:
http://forum.powerampapp.com/topic/...poweramp-build-704-before-requesting/?page=26
Please mention:
1) Your device name (Huawei Honor 8 Pro)
2) Android version (7.0)
3) DAC (HiSilicon Hi6403)
And of course..In you don't use PowerAMP. USE IT.

Is it still advisable to use Poweramp in an Android based DAP?

I always used Poweramp with every device except Samsung.
Cause, all the options you get like 10 band eq, reverb, Bass, treble, Stereo expand plus up sampling etc.

I am sure most poeple know that PowerAmp is arguably (Or unarguably) the BEST music player on planet right now. It also supports 24 bit 192 kHz Hi-res playback on most phones.
But sadly our phone with HiSilicon Hi6403 (32 bit/192 kHz and DSD lossless format support) doesnt feature in them.
I have submitted our phone's details on poweramp forums for the same.

Yes. Thats how I feel exactly. But I would jump back to PowerAMP the moment it starts to support my phone.
