SOFA is a file format for storing spatially oriented acoustic data like head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) and binaural or directional room impulse responses (BRIRs, DRIRs). This website aims at providing SOFA-relevant information.


SOFA conventions are designed for a consistent description of data stored in SOFA. The aim is the exchange of the data between researches and users. For each conventions, data exist from corresponding measurement setups and its description has been accepted by the peer group. Suggestions for new SOFA conventions and additions to existing ones are highly welcome.


List of repositories with SOFA files containing HRTFs, BRIRs, and DRIRs measured by different researchers.


SOFA files can be read and modified by a variety of software and application-programming interfaces (APIs).


SOFA is result of the work of many people from various institutions.
