This book presents an extensive and timely survey of more than 30
surround and 20 stereo-microphone techniques. Further, it offers,
for the first time, an explanation of why the RCA "Living Stereo"
series of legacy recordings from the 1950s and 60s is still
appreciated by music lovers worldwide, despite their use of an
apparently incorrect recording technique from the perspective of
psychoacoustics. Discussing this aspect in detail, the book draws
on the author's study of concert hall acoustics and
psychoacoustics. The book also analyzes the "fingerprint" features
of a selected number of surround and - more importantly - stereo
microphone techniques in depth by measuring their signal
cross-correlation over frequency and also using an artificial human
head. In addition, the book presents a rating of microphone
techniques based on the assessment of various acoustic attributes,
and merges the results of several subjective listening tests,
including those conducted by other researchers. Building on this
knowledge, it provides fresh insights into important microphone
system features, from stereo to 3D audio. Moreover, it describes
new microphone techniques, such as AB-PC, ORTF-T and BPT, and the
recently defined BQIrep (Binaural Quality Index of reproduced
music). Lastly, the book concludes with a short history of
microphone techniques and case studies of live and studio
recordings.
