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!
