Systems and methods for active noise cancellation are provided. An example method includes receiving at least two reference signals associated with at least two reference positions. Each of the at least two reference signals includes at least one captured acoustic sound representing an unwanted noise. The reference signals are filtered by individual filters to obtain filtered signals. The filtered signals are combined to obtain a feedforward signal. The feedforward signal is played back to reduce the unwanted noise at a pre-determined space location. The individual filters are determined based on linear combinations of at least two transfer functions. Each of the at least two transfer functions is associated with one of the reference positions. In certain embodiments, the at least two reference signals are captured by at least two feedforward microphones.
