That is dependent on several factors, including how our hearing mechanism works, differences in headphones, and individual differences as well as learned responses. Binaural history The first use of binaural sound occurred in 1881 in Paris. Inven- tor Clement Ader mounted a se- ries of primitive carbon tele- phone transmitters along the front of the stage of the Paris Op- era House. The transmitters were grouped in pairs the same dis- tance apart as human ears, with several pairs across. The leftmost of each pair were mixed together and fed to one telephone line, which listeners in their homes directed to their left ears using the ordinary phone earpiece. The rightmost of each pair were also mixed together and fed to a sec- ond phone line, which each lis- tener had to have installed in their home. The result was that as opera singers moved about the stage, home listeners could "see" their movement while hearing the music with much greater fidelity than a single phone line could possibly provide. The origi- nal patent says "This double lis- tening to sound. .. produces the same effects on the ear that the stereoscope produces on the eye." It's fortunate that a wide fre- quency response is not the most important parameter for con- veying the binaural effect; phase accuracy and correct balance be- tween the two channels is more and stereophonic (d). important.

  • Optimal Crosstalk Cancellation for Binaural Audio with Two Loudspeakers
    Optimal Crosstalk Cancellation for Binaural Audio with Two Loudspeakers Edgar Y. Choueiri Princeton University [email protected] Crosstalk cancellation (XTC) yields high-spatial-fidelity reproduction of binaural audio through loudspeakers allowing a listener to perceive an accurate 3-D image of a recorded soundfield. Such accurate 3-D sound reproduction is useful in a wide range of applications in the medical, military and commercial audio sectors. However, XTC is known to add a severe spectral coloration to the sound and that has been an impediment to the wide adoption of loudspeaker-based binaural audio. The nature of this coloration in two-loudspeaker XTC systems, and the fundamental aspects of the regularization methods that can be used to optimally control it, were studied analytically using a free-field two-point-source model. It was shown that constant-parameter regularization, while effective at decreasing coloration peaks, does not yield optimal XTC filters, and can lead to the formation of roll-offs and doublet peaks in the filter’s frequency response. Frequency-dependent regularization was shown to be significantly better for XTC optimization, and was used to derive a prescription for designing optimal two-loudspeaker XTC filters, whereby the audio spectrum is divided into adjacent bands, each of is which associated with one of three XTC impulse responses, which were derived analytically. Aside from the sought fundamental insight, the analysis led to the formulation of band-assembled XTC filters, whose optimal properties favor their practical use for enhancing the spatial realism of two-loudspeaker playback of standard stereo recordings containing binaural cues.

  • Accurate Reproduction of Binaural Recordings Through Individual Headphone Equalization and Time Domain Crosstalk Cancellation
    PROCEEDINGS of the 23rd International Congress on Acoustics 9 to 13 September 2019 in Aachen, Germany Accurate reproduction of binaural recordings through individual headphone equalization and time domain crosstalk cancellation David GRIESINGER1 1 David Griesinger Acoustics, Cambridge, MA, USA ABSTRACT Accessing the acoustic quality of spaces of all sizes depends on methods that can instantly and precisely compare the sound of different seats and spaces. Complex systems using many loudspeakers have been developed that hopefully achieve this goal. Binaural technology offers a simpler solution. The sound pressure at a listener’s eardrums can be measured with probe microphones, and reproduced with headphones or speakers calibrated at the eardrums. When carefully done the scene is precisely reproduced. But due to the variability of ear canal resonances such recordings and playbacks are highly individual. In this paper we present methods that are non-individual. Our recordings from a dummy head or from the eardrums are equalized to be essentially frequency linear to sound sources in front, giving the recording head the frontal frequency response of studio microphones. The recordings are then played back either through headphones equalized at the eardrum to match the response of a frontal source, or with a simple, non-individual crosstalk cancelling system. We equalize headphones at an individual’s eardrums using equal loudness measurements, and generate crosstalk cancellation with a non-individual algorithm in the time domain. Software apps and plug-ins that enable headphone equalization and crosstalk cancellation on computers and cellphones are now available. Keywords: Binaural, Headphones, Crosstalk 1. INTRODUCTION This paper concerns methods for binaurally recording and later precisely reproducing the sound in a hall or room.

    AMBEO® for Binaural AMBEO How it works: for Binaural Normal stereo audio is limited to two dimensions: only left and right inside the head of the listener. Binaural audio breaks this barrier by allowing sounds to be placed anywhere in front, behind, above, or below the listener in three dimensions, while still using only a stereo signal to carry the audio. Technically speaking, binaural audio is a stereo audio signal that has been treated with the same temporal and spatial acoustic properties that, in the 3D audio can be created in diverse ways. real world, allow us to hear sounds all around us, in three dimensions.

Gardner Submitted to the Program in Media Arts and Sciences, School of Architecture and Planning on August 8, 1997, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Abstract 3-D audio systems, which can surround a listener with sounds at arbitrary locations, are an important part of immersive interfaces. A new approach is presented for implementing 3-D audio using a pair of conventional loudspeakers. The new idea is to use the tracked position of the listener's head to optimize the acoustical presentation, and thus produce a much more realistic illusion over a larger listening area than existing loudspeaker 3-D audio systems. By using a remote head tracker, for instance based on computer vision, an immersive audio environment can be created without donning headphones or other equipment.

  • Historical Development of Analog Disc Recording Technology And
    Historical Development of Analog Disk Recording Technology and Artifacts Now in Existence — Shift from Mechanical to Electrical Recording Methods for Longer 1 Duration Recordings and Stereo Sound — Takeaki Anazawa ■ Abstract Chapter 2 of this study, titled “The Birth and Rise of the Phonograph,” touches on related developments . The history of analog recordings dates back to 1877 when American inventor Thomas Edison came up with a new phonograph that enabled users to record sound onto a recording cylinder and replay that audio. In 1887, just 10 years later, German inventor Emile Berliner created the gramophone. The era from that time up until the end of World War I was one where the cylinder-based recording medium competed with the disk-based medium. Later, the disk medium, which was more conducive to mass replication, went on to dominate in the realm of analog recordings. Chapter 3 of this study, titled The Birth of Acoustic (Mechanical) Disk Recording and Playback, describes developments in Japan with respect to audio recordings . Toward the end of the nineteenth century, Japan began importing wax cylinder audio devices. At the beginning of the twentieth century, Western record companies began making recordings in Japan, and then reproduced those recordings back home for export to Japan. In 1909, a Japanese company began manufacturing disk-shaped records (single sided 78-rpm records, 10-inches in diameter), which were released under the “Nipponophone” label. One year later, in 1910, Japan’s first domestically produced gramophone player was released. Chapter 4 of this study, titled The Advent of Electrical Recording, describes circumstances ensuing after the end of the World War I.

The first cue is people as to the advantages and that of time delays between the disadvantages of binaural techniques. ears. It is clear that a sound from, Issues and available information are say, the left will arrive at the left summarised, together with an ear before the right ear. For a indication of areas of doubt. sound on the extreme left, this time delay at the right ear is about 0.62 ms, and for a sound arriving from (say) 30° from the left of front (or back, or up, or down), the time delay is about 0.24 ms. Clearly, the time delay cue cannot distinguish front from behind from above from below. All it indicates is the angle of arrival of the sound from the axis of symmetry of the ears. One technique of binaural recording makes use mainly or only of this cue, and that is the ORTF technique of using a pair of microphones spaced apart by about 17 cm. In order to improve compatibility with stereo loudspeaker reproduction, the microphones are directional ones pointing to the left and right respectively, angled about 110° one from the other (see fig.
