[Sursound] DTS Headphone:X

2013-04-29 Thread Jon Honeyball
Has anyone heard the new work by DTS called Headphone:X? I heard it recently at NAB. I was very impressed by the front and rear positioning, but not so convinced by height. Rather oddly, they have to apply a room measured impulse response as part of the simulation, to simulate the real speakers

The realiser used headtracking I think - it was, as I say, amazingly accurate - I literally couldnt tell the difference between the headphones on imitating the speakers, and the headphones off (tilting them automatically activated the real speakers) - and this was using the HRTFs of an older man

A whole bunch of Zucharelli-recorded stuff was released as a hugely expensive set of 10 sound effects CDs. I waited until they were discounted to a tenner each and bought them. Happy to provide copies to anyone who wants to play. John On 29 Apr 2013, at 12:21, Eero Aro eero@dlc.fi wrote:
