Actually, dissenting voices apart, I can see how one might want some items in a sound field to be localisable, and some not. If this is actually what is wanted here - and taking into account one might want a particular component to be 'everywhere and nowhere' - but not inside the head - then a decorrelated version of the mono version of the desired unlocalisable-but-externalised signal could be generated and fed to the array (so basically, it's decorrelated in each speaker feeds with respect to all others) - so no precedence or phantom imaging.
when the rest of the field is rotated - although this is too, it still won't be localisable and the impression should be that it doesn't particularly move. The perceptual impression ought to be that this is underlying incidental music (like film music) not part of the actual scene depicted. - We are well versed in listening to that. For decorrelation methods, the same methods as in Earl Vickers' "fixing the phantom center: diffusing acoustical crosstalk" might be efficacious cheers ppl Dr. Peter Lennox Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy Senior Lecturer in Perception College of Arts University of Derby Tel: 01332 593155 ________________________________________ From: Sursound [sursound-boun...@music.vt.edu] On Behalf Of Joseph Anderson [j.ander...@ambisonictoolkit.net] Sent: 29 March 2016 00:59 To: Surround Sound discussion group Subject: Re: [Sursound] Static stereo source in rotating soundfield, possible? Hello Eero, I could say something about the competing voices (on W) inside my head... and the difficulty in deciding which to regard as an appropriate guide. But, this isn't a suitable forum for such discussions. ;-) My best, *Joseph Anderson* *http://www.ambisonictoolkit.net/ <http://www.ambisonictoolkit.net/>* On Mon, Mar 28, 2016 at 1:35 PM, Eero Aro <eero....@dlc.fi> wrote: > It's early days in VR. >> > > I agree with Stefan. > > A couple of months ago I attended a seminar, where we were shown some > 360 video examples of holiday travel advertising clips.
