3D Sound for All Consoles

[DarthPaul]

Omg!! I'm listening to it right now!! I almost get the smell of the haircut haha! This is awesome... OMG THE END!! This freaks out!

this is really cool, I didn't realize that with only two speakers on a headphone that you could emulate every direction

[defklf]

well, you only have two ears so of course it's possible.

this technology has been used for games since.... hmmm... since around doom 1 i believe..

[mcdougall57]

oh this would kick so much ass in resident evil when zombies are creeping up behind you or metal gear solid so you can hear the enemy around corners, behind and above

I've learned this technique in school, pretty basic actually. But it is really cool.

did you ever heard surround sound?!?!?!?! search it

[da1writer]

This is actually used in Pspgenesis, just put on some headphones when playing your Genesis games and the music is totally surround sound. Trust me, It's unbelievable!

[The_It]

lol thats so cool

[bah]

Da1writer: No Megadrive/Genesis games are surround sound and I don't believe that PSPgenesis has any feature to add It (playback '3d' sound 'enhancers' working from a plain stereo source really don't work).

I'ts just good use of stereo.

Was this barber thing is done with the proper binaural (mic. in each ear of a dummy head) method, which is different to what games use as they have to use an algorithm to fake the same effect?

If the barber clip isn't true 'binaural' audio ( i recall them mentioning some algorithm) it would make sense as the 3D didn't really work for me.

Sorry about that, you are right that it uses really great stereo. Is there any other mp3 files like the barber shop one?
