Greetings, Some of the first binaural recordings I made were with the Core Sound mics attached to my glasses frame (mics very close to conchas, but not in the ears). I also made recordings of traffic sounds using the same mics and with a KEMAR--the mics, however, were in the KEMAR which then

Hello Guilherme, I have some insight regarding your question re KEMAR and the Neumann acoustical test fixtures/heads. Briefly, KEMAR was designed with hearing science in mind. The torso was designed to approximate average human size (I think we have, on average, grown since the introduction of

I'll add that the Neumann KU81 and KU100 dummy heads (Kunstkopf) are designed to sound good over loudspeakers as well. There's a paper by Stephen Peus about this that you can download from Neumann at http://www.neumann.com/?lang=enid=current_microphonescid=ku100_publications Look for Stephan
