Re: [Sursound] 'Quasi-flat' binaural

2014-01-11 Thread dw
If anyone is interested in trying this, it would be useful to know the 
effect of altering the playback speed on frontal localization. This 
would have the effect of shifting the position of any front/back 
directional bands, Better or worse for +/- 10% speed change would be 
good to know. I could then scale the IRs by resampling. This would have 
the effect of a smaller or larger head/ears, which I could then alter on 
the dummy head.
Audacity for example has a speed change facility (top left, green arrow, 
and slider)

Many thanks to anyone playing!

David,

Intriguing, but I don't know exactly what it is that I'm supposed to be 
hearing!  A little descriptive text would be helpful.



Apart from being crypic by nature, I did not want to bias expectations. Too 
late now..
I am using the monitor output of a Roland Quad Capture, which sounds 
significantly better than a laptop output.

inserting a full diameter pad of 16 sheets of horticultural fleece 
underneath the foam pad. This also has the unintended benefit of damping 
the bass resonance. There are probably, ahem, better cans, but at least 
one can replicate part of my listening method, if not my ears.
