    Legally Downloadable Binaural recordings links

    More binaural flac goodness... These just posted on Bandcamp. I put together a natural 'sounds of summer' record that you can download as a whole, or shop tracks a la carte. I decided to start it out with a track of fireworks, and while this is track is not a fireworks finale of epic...

    Legally Downloadable Binaural recordings links

    I have finally decided to make much of my catalog of sounds - many recorded binaurally (KU 100 mannequin head mic), others recorded in conventional stereo - available via bandcamp. Here's a link to one that is probably timely for this time of the season - at least in the northern hemisphere -...

    Are binaural recordings higher quality than normal ones?

    It's been a while since I have been on the site (sorry Jude...) but I figured this would be a fun link to post, though it's been so long I probably have forgotten that I already posted this. Anyway, if you like aviation you will probably enjoy these. These are from Oshkosh 2016; most of these...

    AES Damn Lies Workshop

    Yep...that's a great one.   I'd also recommend this one:   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYTlN6wjcvQ   He's dead-on.   Mark PS: Watch at your own peril; these are sure to stir the pot for many viewers.

    I quoted Terry here simply because of the spatial aspects of this thread.   I found this link to the paper by Wes Dooley and Ronald Streicher: http://www.aes.org/e-lib/browse.cfm?elib=3814   If you look around the web you can probably get it free of charge (it is free to AES Members and...

    Cool.   By the way, here's a nice paper (a link to it anyway) on the whole Lebedev procedure, and the caveats. This is for the KU 100 subjected to such measurements, but for near field. A lot of stuff of which to be aware when making such measurements:  ...

    So, the site says the following (shortened to highlight a few key bits, emphasis added by me):   "...It includes integrated spatial sound on Xbox and Windows, with support for both surround and elevation (above or below the listener) audio cues. ...The spatial sound APIs allows developers to...

    Terry's post jogged my memory about this stuff...but admittedly, I need to do some more research.   At the same time, it makes me wonder if they are incorporating any SOFA-derived stuff to generate the binaural.   I would suggest that those with an interest start looking into the A.E.S. -...

    Binaural Aviation Excerpts:   OK, so I have decided to make the excerpts from the Aviation Binaural Recordings available on my soundcloud page. They're all encoded at 320 kbps, but I have not yet upload the flac format variants. Anyway, there are some pretty cool tracks here - the simulated...

    Terry: I'll peruse my email...I think I have your address somewhere. If so, I'll send you a few examples of what I have done so far. BTW...I promise you that the sound you hear in the after-burn files is not distortion of the A/D in the recorder. They sound awesome...and the T-6's (with their...

    You're most welcome, Terry. By the by...I have just returned from Oshkosh (the Annual EAA Fly-in) and took my Neumann KU 100 mannequin head there. I have since been plowing through (literally) days of binaural audio from the various airshows that took place each day (I recorded three days'...

    Terry: Thanks for mentioning them; Terzo Orecchio ("Third Ear" in Italian) do some great stuff...   For those out there who like mannequin head recordings, I use the same type of mannequin (as I recall), the Neumann KU 100 for all of the binaural stuff that I do, and have recorded a number of...

    Binaural Recordings

    This is a pretty cool demo compliments of the BBC. It takes a while to get to the 'meat' of the binaural stuff, but if you fast-forward to the 4:50 mark and put on your headphones, you'll probably find it pretty cool:   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51za5u3LtEc&feature=youtu.be   The head...

    Dr. Chesky's Ultimate Headphone Demonstration Disc - Head-Fi TV

    I really didn't address this post (though I cited it before to call attention to a very unusual (for most reading this) style of music), but I did want to say something about this in response.   I happen to agree with you. As someone who does more than a fair bit of binaural recording, it has...

    Ann Arbor Huron High School Choirs, Summer 2011   If you are into choir and piano, then these are some pretty nice recordings that I just posted. They are available in 320 kbps mp3 as well as .flac; please do not stream them as soundcloud's player is a 128 kbps mp3 stream - the download...

    Thoughts on a bunch of DACs (and why delta-sigma kinda sucks, just to get you to think about stuff)

    Thanks for this. I was not acquainted with Turin's work until now. Interestingly, a lot of the methodology that is employed in SD (semantic differential) and PC (paired comparison) testing comes from the food industry (the Bradley-Terry model has some of its roots there if I am not mistaken), so...

    Thoughts on a bunch of DACs (and why delta-sigma kinda sucks, just to get you to think about stuff)

    Social dynamics. Very interesting stuff (I say that in earnest). Good point about overlap - I can give you one such example, namely, when we do the listening trials, we try to visually isolate (if possible) the jurors' points of view. That is, just like back in grade school, we don't want people...

    Thoughts on a bunch of DACs (and why delta-sigma kinda sucks, just to get you to think about stuff)

    Hmmm...I'm not sure why I should be banned for discussing something that's related to the subject. In no way did I denigrate anyone or their positions or opinions, nor did I say anything untoward about any or all of the products mentioned. In fact, if you look at my previous posts, I actually...

    Thoughts on a bunch of DACs (and why delta-sigma kinda sucks, just to get you to think about stuff)

    Again, I am not discounting opinions or attempting to denigrate them; everyone's opinion and preference counts (or should). I am however attempting to make a distinction between the results of well-designed tests conducted in an controlled fashion and opinion. Again, when differences are clear...
