%MCLACHLAN2021_PREPROC - extract HRTF using gammatone frequency bands and ITDs from SOFA object
%   Usage: [template, target] = mclachlan2021_preproc(SOFAobj)
%
%   Input parameters:
%       SOFAtemplate: Struct in SOFA format with HRTFs
%
%   Output parameters:
%     template : template struct with spectral components
%     target   : template struct with spectral components
%
%   MCLACHLAN2021_PREPROC(...) computes temporally integrated
%   spectral magnitude profiles and itd.
%
%   MCLACHLAN2021_PREPROC accepts the following optional parameters:
% 
%     'source_ir',source_ir   Set the sound source's impulse reponse. 
%                             Default value a broadband sound source

%                       filterbank to fb_ch.

%
%     'targ_az',targ_az   Set the azimuth of a set of sound sources

%                         Default value is []: all target azimuths are
%                         used. Must have the same size of targ_el.
%
%     'targ_el',targ_el   Set the elevation of a set of sound sources
%                         to targ_el. It can be a scalar or a column vector
%                         Default value is []: all target elevations are
