Hello Stefan, good discussion.

Nobody is able to separate more source positions in the real environment. We can merge together some sources, which pose fairly common positions in the recording room. On the other hand, often only one single source provides the audio content. By which reason we should transmit more as one single channel? > Data of "source position and recording room acoustics" would have to be > coded in a transparent and elegant form, and is there any agreement on this? > This looks far from being "trivial"... > Unfortunately, all trivial tasks are solved today. :) However, this seem solvable today.

I see a lot of starting points for common system approach from Holophony and Ambisonics. As example, the described loudspeaker field behind the silver screen would be able to produce uncurved wave fronts without too much impact of the playback room acoustics. Uncurved wavefronts are fundamentally for ambisonics. Regards Helmut -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
