Surround sound.
Hello,
Paul,
Yes, it's an interesting subject. What would be perfect is getting knowledge from experienced people.
It's used a lot in media recording, on location and indeed
by the hardware industry who make headphones and racks for
say Dolby, who have entire customized hardware for the
production of binaural.
There are, like you say, different emphasis put onto the timbres
and soundscape that reflect the listeners pleasure. Essentially
what you are doing is messing with a blank canvas of "space"
and area...a domain. INto that domain you introduce reflections
of sound and build a framework of how your panning works with
bands of layers of sounds.
What is being made is a super/stereo elevated field of directional
sound. The listener, over time, begins to experience the sound in
a much more intrinsic natural way.
One really can be using common sense here. The DAW;s all seem
to have some relation to it. It's present in many forms and
ccan be "hidden" as to how often it's put into real paces and used
as a production technique.
If you want to hear it at work, there are albums (CD's) by the band
OSI (office of strategic information)....or something like that.
The band holds TWO ex members of Dream Theatre.
The albums are available on pleer.com
best wishes,
V
