Binaural Samples!
Plug in any stereo headphones and
EXPERIENCE
and LEARN ABOUT BINAURAL! While these demos will give you a good sample
of the binaural
experience, remember that you're not hearing quite everything, because
data-compressed
audio on the Internet is still not able to capture all the subtleties
of
binaural while allowing you to download files quickly. But if this is
your first binaural experience you are sure to be impressed! SPECIAL
WARNING TO USERS
OF WINDOWS '95: MicroSoft in their wisdom made MONO the Default Setting
for MPEG audio playback! You must go into the settings to switch to
Stereo
or you will never hear two channels in binaural OR stereo.
DOWNLOADING/INSTALLING
AN MP3 PLAYER: First verify that your computer has a sound
card and a jack to plug in stereo headphones. Be certain the headphone
plug
is fully inserted into the jack - it is possible to hear a signal in
both
ears but actually be mixing the two channels into mono, which will not
transmit
any of binaural's astonishing spatial realism. Download and install an
appropriate
version of a player; RealAudio's RealPlayer, MicroSoft's Media Player
and
Apple's QuickTime
are the most
popular. Then either configure your browser to use the player
automatically,
or download to your desktop and play the files when offline.

concert, neighbors, birds, in to movie
The concert was outdoors across a valley in my neighborhood. I just
built the Radio Shack microphones into a headset and was trying it out.
Listening to it the first few times, I had to check if the birds were
live or part of the recording. I hadn't understood about moving my head
during the recording, so you hear some of that as well as other noise.
