Binaural room impulse responses (BRIRs) and spherical microphone array impulse responses (DRIRs) of the WDR broadcast studios in Cologne in SOFA file format. The BRIRs were measured with a Neumann KU100 dummy head for 360 directions along the horizontal plane (1° spatial resolution). The DRIRs were measured for rigid- and open-sphere configurations on different Lebedev grids. For further details, please refer to the conference publications listed below:
