There are various options around for binaural recording. When considering
recordings on real heads (for individualised HRTF sets) what microphones
do you recommend? Clearly there going to be a large range in price and
quality. B&K 4101 for example may be out of my price range.
If your budget is adequate, we'd recommend our High End Binaural (HEB)
microphone set. They use a well-matched pair of the DPA 4060-series
capsules.
The B&K 4101 uses the same capsules. The HEBs have a considerably lower
price.
On a related note what is the best approach for blockage of the ear canal
when making these recordings with in-ear microphones? Any references would
be appreciated.
If you want to do in-ear binaural recordings, we recommend bringing the HEBs
to your local hearing aid technician and having them make a custom set of
silicone ear molds. In the US that costs around $100.
They can also be mounted near-ear by using clip mounts attached to the
earpieces of a set of eyeglasses.
