Dear Richard and Sursounders,
The AES-X212 "Spatial acoustic data file format" standardizes a file format to exchange
HRTF data. The format is designed to be extendable to represent any space-related data, such as
spatial room impulse responses (SRIR) measured with multichannel microphone and loudspeaker arrays.
It builds upon the spatially oriented format for acoustics (SOFA) and has the filename extension
"sofa".
I stand (maybe) corrected.

This is not a finished project/format yet, or is it?
Best,
Stefan
The AES-X212 Task Group Draft got approved by the AES-SC earlier this year. I
am currently working on the final edits and we should get the standard
published within the next few weeks.
An application-programming interface (API) with similar calls for various programming languages (Matlab, Octave, C++) and for different computer platforms is available online at http://www.sofaconventions.org as well as on http://sourceforge.net/projects/sofacoustics. The API provides functionality to create, read, and write SOFA files.
The SOFA website already hosts source materials from different HRTF databases.
Please note that these data are encoded using a beta version of the AES-X212
format.
Best Regards,
Markus

I think the AES already has a project to define a file format for htrfs; when I get home I can find the project code.

Is there a way to get a personalized HRTF (or even one near mine) with out
spending many hundreds of the coins of your choice or travelling to a

No but, if the Microsoft stuff works out, there
might be.
Is there a "standard format" for HRTFS that can be used in several softwares
or even converted?
The answer is, again, no. However, to state
the obvious, if HRTFs are going to fly then
there needs to be. Is this a task for the AES
and/or the EBU?
To continue stating the obvious, most
audio-only listening currently takes place using
ear-buds plugged into players or phones. This
doesn't look like it is going to change anytime
soon. Binaural with personalized HRTFs would
improve this listening experience.

Martin
