   \begin{abstract}
     In the field of spatial audio reproduction different types of software have
     been designed to cope with the needs of several rendering algorithms
     conceived over the last century. Their feasibility and reproducability in a
     real environment have been evaluated and tested and their implementations
     extended.\\
-    Often, rendering software is a single-purpose application, that fills the
-    niche for a specific setup in place. To some of these solutions
-    unfortunately, no further work is applied, leaving them unsupported at some
-    point.\\
-    In the following work, current free and open-source spatial audio
-    renderers, currently in use in scientific and artistic contexts, are
-    evaluated. The SoundScape Renderer --- in contrast to the other candidates,
-    a multi-purpose tool --- is chosen for a rewrite of its network based
-    messaging system, which then allows it to be used in large scale
