I am so glad I found this recording and happened to be listening with the headphones I normally use for binaural listening. The binaural cat's purring was absolutely amazing and the highlight of the recording! Very well done. My listening is almost exclusively with headphones. In my experience, and I listen to a lot of binaural audio, the quality of the headphones and audio chain is most critical for binaural work. To put it another way, binaural is the 'acid test' for audio equipment. Sometimes it's quite amazing what equipment and headphones turn out to really present the most accurate reproduction in that it's not always what you think would (or should) be the most best or most accurate.

Sounds fantastic but maybe an ear canal has to be created in the dummy head and the microphone element mounted there to achieve a truer binaural pickup as per the structure of a human ear ? When I used a Sennheiser dummy head system many years ago the microphone elements were actually pointed upwards. These ear pieces could also be used on human heads as earpieces for recording. We used them for radio drama recordings as well as live classical music recordings. Once the binaural fad slowed the unit sat in storage for a number of years until I found it gathering dust and mounted the microphone elements on the sides of a baseball hat. It allowed me to record incognito in public spaces to first a cassette unit and then later to DAT, MD and SD media recorders for sfx use. That allowed me to record ambient crowd sounds (stores, hospitals, factories, restaurants, coffee shops, bus-train, airport terminals, marketplaces, moving vehicles, subways, trains, buses, etc.) without people coming up to me and asking me what I was recording and without always needed to arrange for permission from the management of these locations (which we always had to arrange when using traditional microphones because they confused us with film sound crews). The only disadvantage was that I had to go elsewhere to post listen to what I had captured since wearing closed headphones would give away the fact I was recording and defeat the purpose of the exercise. The sound that was captured (although technically stereo and not binaural) was some of the best moving and static sfx that I ever recorded for radio drama when the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation still produced drama for radio broadcast.

Awesome episode, guys! The ASMR (aka YMCA, aka BSFA, aka FLOP, 🤣) effect was so convincing, that as I listening through headphones while sitting on my sofa, the sound of Mark’s footsteps made my head turn around, because it sounded just like someone was actually in my living room with me, walking up behind me, from the left. 😳🤯 The realism was a bit spooky, but, also very impressive. Okay…so now I want a dummy head, too… I can’t really think of any practical application for it, but I STILL want one. I suppose that I could always get into producing my own ASMR (aka DOPE, aka WACK, aka BLAM) recordings! 🤣😂

It's worth pointing out that the listening volume level can be quite critical to the overall experience. Generally, a lower volume works better. It's not always straightforward finding the optimal listening level between being able to hear everything and being too loud and ruining the effect. It can be the almost subliminal or very quiet sounds in the the recording that provide the most sense of 'feel' or 'environment' to the soundscape. This, again, is why the the audio chain needs to be of the highest quality as inadequacies will distort or ruin the soundscape and therefore the experience.

My question is that, since the microphones no longer facing forward and are mounted diagonally from the sound source, how much compensation did you have to make (equalization if any) for the microphone's frequency response, if any? Thanks in advance.

Have you guys looked into front-to-back confusion in binaural? In my case, everything recorded in the front translated to the back, and things in the back just sounded MORE clearly in the back. It's a typical limitation of the format and I'd love to hear what you think about it. From research at McGill university, many colleagues doing binaural research as part of their PhD studies, I remember it's one of the hardest things to achieve, proper front to back differentiation in every listener, and it has to do with HRTF of every listener and the system used to record and whatnot, this is why some reproduction systems have been developed with sensors that measure your head circumference and ear to ear distance, in an attempt to replicate a better reproduction of the recording across all listeners.

What’s really neat in this discussion is Apple allowing Atmos in combination with “spatial audio” for their iOS devices. When you move your head around (if you have air pods, that is), it’s like you have a full Atmos surround setup. The system is aware of your head’s position. The one thing is to make sure that you are looking straight ahead at the display when you press play :). Some shows on Disney+, for example, sound amazing.

Excellent. I was hooked when I bought Lou Reed's The Bells on release...it's a nicer job that the subsequent binaural he did - even the live stuff. I'm perm prejudiced against Street Hassles as I saw him on that tour...a dour, unpleasant, bitter affair. One brilliant title track though.What hasn't been explained, from my on n off searching, is just how it's applied in the studio when recording and mixing. I assume a surround sound mix is created and then rerecorded via the dummy in an isolated, quiet room. The "loss" of definition/audio quality etc are also of interest. Bloody good stuff though.

@@PresentDayProduction well, at least you tried! Have you considered using some sort of silicone instead of the sand? It should be more human-like, although I am not sure how desirable that might be, I’d imagine it would let some frequencies to bleed through to the other side.

The sand worked really well, but I’ve replaced that with densely packed insulation now. Works just as well but a bit less messy!

So, Mark made space, for the vinyl front ears... though I wonder if the whole binaural thing is a bit of a ‘silly con’. I guess I’m just a very insensitive kinda bod... but I can’t tell what’s ‘different’ about binaural than any other reasonable stereo recording... I could only hear left/right/centre, over headphones, not in-front/behind etc (but then I can’t interpret those 3D magic pics either)... though there’s a quiet-ish burst of digital buzz from the left at 12:53-ish, is that anything..? What am I missing (apart from a vast personal fortune and a worthy life)?

Listen to the bit with the black screen and you should really get a sense of space. Particularly from behind you on the left. If not…. You’re broken! Try the Virtual Barber Shop as well (link in the description)

@@PresentDayProduction Well, the big news (not..!) is that I’m a damaged individual. Left/Centre/Right are all clear enough... but nothing in-front/behind. Same with VBS. Has the Emperor ordered a new Walkman? Good news, though... I won’t need to waste my meagre funds on an expensive multi-speaker system... stereo will do.

@@CheapoCardCompany Normal stereo in headphones is Left then a range across the top of the head to Right ear or visa versa. I can hear the difference very clearly. If you can't that's quite a bummer.

@@raycochrane3971 Eh...? Don’t quite get that... I mean, okay, the implication of my being abnormal is fair enough... but I’d have thought “normal stereo in headphones” would be an in-ear linear-level thing, from left, through the ‘centre’ of the head, to the right (& vice versa, of course) all on the same plane. ‘Top of’ implies the (artificial) effect of height... and it’s such, along with in-front & behind which I can’t discern.

@@CheapoCardCompany I didn't imply - I echoed your 1st sentence: "Well, the big news (not..!) is that I’m a damaged individual." I "miswrote" - yes the centre is between the ears but I do hear things as above, often. In stereo headphones I can & do hear things on different vertical planes so that a violin may seem to be above my right ear etc. This is not too far from the stereo image of well set up speakers though. Not as good mind, but not a million miles away. The fact is that I may be the damaged individual.
