Psychoacoustics of 3D sound recording techniques: Research and Practice

Vortragsfolien /Powerpoint Slides

Abstract:

This talk will provide an overview of psychoacoustic principles for height perception in 3D multichannel audio and introduce examples of how the principles are applied in practical 3D sound recording using microphone techniques. The session will be accompanied with various 9.1 recording demos, including the recent release of a Pure Audio Blu-ray album for Siglo de Oro.
