hi *!
here's a little recording to enjoy via head-tracked binaural, for
example with hector's AmbiExplorer:
http://stackingdwarves.net/download/Pool-WXYZ.flac (300mb)
http://stackingdwarves.net/download/Pool-WXYZ.wav (770mb)
choose the wav if you download it directly to your android phone,
AmbiExplorer won't play the flac. or download the flac to your computer,
decode it to a wav and push it to your phone via USB.
improvised chamber music, 5 musicians and a dancer (whose footsteps you
may hear, very faintly, from time to time).
approximate sound stage:
far left, slightly in the back: recorders
left: classical guitar
a bit right of center: bass clarinet
right: double bass
far right, slightly in the back: percussions and vibraphone
tetramic for ambience, individual spots per instrument. some artificial
reverb to blend the spots.
lots of fun with the phone tucked under the headband of your headphones.
i was able to "learn" the generic HRTFs after a few minutes.
externalisation is not perfect for me (it never is), but exploring the
sound by moving around with eyes closed is a definite win compared to
listening to a static rendering.
you might want to reduce the default hardware and software buffers in
AmbiExplorer for quicker tracking. avoid jerky movements in any case, or
the illusion will break down.
i have the same file in third order, write to me off-list if you're
interested.
have fun,
jörn
