#3D BINAURAL HEADPHONES FULL#
“I’ve made a full 3D/binaural/headphone surround sound EP of 4 tracks and added it to Bandcamp. Cooper (presumably) went back to each track’s original stems to apply stereo panning and reverb effects to individual sonic elements.
#3D BINAURAL HEADPHONES SOFTWARE#
Headphones are again mandatory but as you might expect, results vary according to the creative decisions made by the software user.Įlectronic music producer Max Cooper – whose recordings have often shown surgically precision in their multi-instrument layering to communicate a melodic/speckless gestalt – has tapped into the spirit of the 8D audio phenomenon to rework four tracks from his extensive back catalogue as proper binaural recordings. The last few years have given rise to a YouTube phenomenon called 8D audio where creators use software to apply stereo panning and reverb effects to individual elements of an existing song to create the illusion of a binaural recording. The downside? Loudspeakers can’t properly relay a binaural recording’s spatial cues and binaural recordings of music are few and far between. When we playback a binaural recording through a pair of headphones – any headphones – our brain is tricked into thinking that the sounds we hear are localised in the space around us, just as we might have heard them been had we been present at the recording. The aim is to preserve the interaural time and sound level differences heard by each ‘ear’. Headphone listeners seeking greater sonic immersion look to binaural recordings: sound is captured by two microphones placed a head’s width apart or on/inside a dummy head’s ears. Moreover, surround sound-encoded audio can’t be properly decoded by headphones, which are, by definition 2.0: left and right channels. The downside? More channels means more loudspeakers, more wires and greater expense. More channels allow sound designers to better localise sounds for a more audibly immersive viewing experience. Surround sound? For home theatres, we’ve seen playback systems move from 2.1 to 5.1 to 7.1 to Dolby Atmos, each technological development adding more channels to listening/viewing environments. This concert is funded by The Nordic Culture Fund and Arts Council Norway.
