Impulse sounds for the evaluation of impulse or transient noise reduction

This data set includes nine impulse or transient sounds which have been used for the evaluation of impulse noise reduction in hearing aids. Evaluation of impulse noise reduction in hearing aids with technical measurements and ratings of discomfort Hendrik Husstedt, Wiebke Hilgerdenaar, Marlitt Frenz, Florian Denk and Jürgen Tchorz Acta Acust., 7 (2023) 47, DOI: https://doi.org/10.1051/aacus/2023042 All signals are provided as Wave files and "-mat" files. Each recording has a length of 155 ms and the impulse starts after 5 ms. Wave files: - full scale value corresponds to 200 Pa sound pressure or 140 dB SPL peak sound pressure level - 96.000 sample rate - 24 bits per sample .mat file "sData.mat": data.fs ... sample rate data.t ... time vector to plot the signals data.impulses(1).name ... name of the first impulse signal data.impulses(1).signal ... first impulse signal data.impulses(1).dBCpeak ...
