Hi Stuart,

I don’t have those noises, but if you want to use some hospital noise recordings, the sounds we used in this paper are on GitHub:

Pope Gallun Kampel (2013) "Effect of Hospital Noise on Patients’ Ability to Hear, Understand, and Recall Speech” Research in Nursing and Health 36:228–241

https://doi.org/10.1002/nur.21540

The paper is in the repository as well.

Take care,

Erick

Anyone have a copy of:

Vestergaard, M. 1998 . “The Eriksholm CD 01: Speech signals in various acoustical environments,” Report No. 050-08-01, Oticon Research Centre Eriksholm, Snekkersten.

they could share. TBH, I'm more interested in the CD itself as it has a selection of noises (cafeteria noise, car interior noise, and noise from a bottling hall) that would be interesting to use for some speech-in-noise studies we are planning. These noises were mentioned in:

Kjems, U., Boldt, J. B., Pedersen, M. S., Lunner, T., & Wang, D. L. (2009). Role of mask pattern in intelligibility of ideal binary-masked noisy speech. Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 126(3), 1415-1426. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.3179673

I am also pretty sure I have seen the noise from a bottling hall being used in other studies from DTU.

Thanks for any help!

Yours - Stuart
