Re: [Sursound] analog planner

Unfortunately I only ever had those two. I have got the NRDC's
"Professional Decoder Design" folder which I think is in the Motherload -
if not, I'll get the folder out, photo it and make another .pdf.
Fortunately I know where that one is...

Hi Dave,

If that is Report No. 3, I can't help wondering
what was in the other reports.  In your attic, did
you happen to find an index page listing the
reports and their titles?

Re: [Sursound] analog planner

And here is NRDC's report 4 on spreader and reverb technology
https://www.dropbox.com/s/097njklb862rsn0/report_4.pdf?dl=0

If I remember rightly, these two reports were submitted, in this format
(without the coffee stains which are mine), as part of NRDC's submission to
the FCC commission on quadraphonic broadcasting - then they wondered why
they didn't compete very well with the CBS's of this world.

   Enjoy

The orginal tapes for these units were A & C but M & N were created to

One spatial audio will be used by management classes, we'll see "3D

So let's dream of a world more panned than planned. :-)

Finally, a Transcoder unit generating 2-channel UHJ only could be fed 
with stereo signals for front and rear stages with a stage width control 
on each.


The Transcoder also has an B-Format input in an 5-pin XLR connector.

Re: [Sursound] analog planner

2020-02-16 Thread Augustine Leudar
I'm mainly interested in purely analog devices in this thread, not just the
feel of it. I've been using and making digital devices and controllers for
years to manipulate 3D sound including Arduino, Kinect, Accelerometers,
crystal balls etc etc and most of my exhibitions these days include some
kind of interactive 3D sound, but I am curious as to what was/is available
in the purely analog realm and what can/was be done without any kind of
computer or digital processing.

The Question is it the feel of the controller or no computer involved most
important?

Create a controller or reuse an old one.

Connect an imu to a mechanical controller of our choice :-)

ohti https://github.com/bossesand/OHTI  can be a starting point.

Bno055 as imu.
Using Arduino nano v3 gives usb serial connection.
Esp32 / 8266 can give Wi-Fi, usb or ble connection.

From wish or aliexpress hw cost can be less than 25 £ € very little
soldering is required.
