>>683617well, we could talk about that but it's big and complicated. speshally drums. let me now when you got the money for it though!
>>683618it's a sphere microphone (made from a bowling ball). there are two mics embedded in it like ears. the time difference, level difference, and transfer function between the two mics is approximately the same as the human head. so, when ii'm recording through it the recodings sound nearly "binaural" (the way we hear). the effect is most vivid with headphones. the thing is, because it doesn't have actual pinnae (outer ears) or shouler, it's not strictly binaural. it's very immersive but you won't get the feeling of elevation from it. also, if it had outer ears it wouldn't work as well through speakers, you'd need headphones. the sphere itself is immersive and vivid, but sounds ok through both speakers and headphones. the jecklin disk (on the right) does something similar but it's even more useful through speakers, and i can use much better microphones with it, and it doesn't weight 15lbs, so i can pack it down and hoof it greater distances. pic is a closeup of one of its earholes.
this is a recording done with the binaural ball. use headphones if you can! (wait for the mosquito btw):
