Anthony Mattana wrote: ...And our recording quality is just as good if not better. (hear for yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fw8EzI9ygpI ) Sorry to say that I was not impressed with this recording though it's likely adequate for a consumer crowd satisfied with low rate mp3 recordings, lots of background noise, and degraded binaural fidelity due to variability in individual HRTFs. With the Roland CS-10EM, the mic sits outside of the earlobe and doesn't utilize the earlobe thoroughly when reflecting acoustic pressure waves. If your mics are within the pinna, then if you use on-ear headphones for playback, the HRTF will be changed and you'll lose some binaural fidelity. And if you use in-ear monitors for playback, you'll be getting the resonance effect of the ear canal twice. One of the deficiencies of in-ear binaural recordings is that they don't sound great when played back over speakers. In some ways, near-ear binaural recordings hit the sweet spot of playing back reasonably well on on-ear headphones and over speakers. Hooke is a completely different product from 3DSoundlabs. They are utilizing spatialization software to convert stereo (and often times mono) audio to a proprietary format. They also can play back, with headtracking, ambisonic B-format recordings decoded accurately to binaural using large libraries of HRTFs. I wish you and your new product well!

Re: [Sursound] Hooke: First Bluetooth Binaural Microphone
Hey John! I’m sorry for the delay. I’m new to this list and have been trying to figure out how to respond, I guess just replying to sursound@music.vt.edu” will suffice? Right now our headsets are set to ship November of this year. I will have our first round of manufacturing samples ready this August, but I can’t confirm yet whether or not they’ll be ready for a record off. If you’re interested in test driving a beta test in August, I’d love to discuss further. Thanks!

Re: [Sursound] Hooke: First Bluetooth Binaural Microphone
@Lenmoskowitz, thanks so much! With so much content being captured on Mobile these days (and subsequently being consumed on mobile) having a binaural mic that works direct with a smartphone is key. My goal is to allow consumers to be creative with sound, I’m a sound designer myself here in NYC and am always fighting for sound to be included in the conversation. I’m convinced this is because most everyone besides us doesn’t have any tools at their disposal to understand sound and thusly be creative with it. We have dimmers in our homes and auto stabilization on our phones. My 15 year old cousin could become very creative with a simple mic gain adjustment and binaural recording! I just want the world to care about sound. The CS-10EM is by far lower quality than the Hooke Verse. They’re playback quality doesn’t even come close to ours. And our recording quality is just as good if not better. (hear for yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fw8EzI9ygpI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fw8EzI9ygpI) With the Roland CS-10EM, the mic sits outside of the earlobe and doesn’t utilize the earlobe thoroughly when reflecting acoustic pressure waves. With the Rolands, I often feel like I’m listening to a stereo mic rather than a binaural mic because of this mic placement. Hooke is a completely different product from 3DSoundlabs. They are utilizing spatialization software to convert stereo (and often times mono) audio to a proprietary format. Which is great and all, just not what we’re about. Hooke is about localization, utilizing the human ear to capture sound identically to the way we experience it. And we’re wireless. We are currently in talks with software spatialization companies regarding adding an algorithm that would allow Hooke to be used as a head tracking audio playback option for VR scenarios. And this could be added to your Hooke via a OTA software update months after you purchase the headphones :-) We have a few products coming out soon that I think you will all be very excited about! -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Re: [Sursound] Hooke: First Bluetooth Binaural Microphone
Anthony Mattana anth...@hookeaudio.com wrote: I apologize if this is not the way to post, but I'm looking for feedback on a product I've recently invented HOOKE (www.hookeaudio.com ) I like your idea of adding bluetooth to the mix. Long ago, in the late-60's or early 70's, when cassette Walkmen were king, Aiwa offered a low-cost combined stereo headphone/near-ear binaural microphone set. These days, Roland offers the CS-10EM (http://www.rolandus.com/products/cs-10em/) which is the same idea, but in-ear and with higher sound quality. Roland probably has the price edge over you. Your main edge over them is bluetooth. (Bluetooth comes with some negatives too - mainly sound quality.) We've been offering very well-matched, compact, clip-on/in-ear binaural microphones since 1989, ranging in price from $75 to around $1000 per pair. I didn't see them mentioned in the video on your web site when you covered the binaural competition. We have some competitors (copy-cat and otherwise), some at low cost, and they weren't mentioned either. Your system lacks head tracking, so the folks at 3D Sound Labs (http://3dsoundlabs.com/en/) have an edge over you in that feature. But they don't have microphones. And while their headtracker uses bluetooth, their playback is wired. I think that's probably a feature in their case, as they offer better sound quality than bluetooth can offer. IMO, if you added the hardware for headtracking and an app that could do the math for playback, you'd have something very nice. Your retail price would probably rise though.
