Hi there,
    The two main mechanisms (which are certainly not the only ones!) for
distance perception are the ratio of direct to reverberant sound and the
pattern of early reflections. Both of these are captured with B format
impulse responses but of course only for the given source/listener/room
configuration You can edit the impulse response to some extent to change
these or record multiple IR's and interpolate between them - but frankly it
might be better to build models based on the recorded IR's and/or room
plans and then then synthesise the IR's.
