Listening with two ears

Author: Konishi, M.

Description: This overview of binaural hearing addresses topics such as directional hearing in the horizontal and vertical planes, the precedence and Haas effects and their applications in public-address and “assisted-resonance” systems, artifical reverberation, pseudo-stereophony, and binaural release from masking. The cocktail-party effect, central-pitch phenomena, Deutsch’s octave illusion, creation of virtual sound images, and faithful reproduction of concert hall recordings in an anechoic environment for acoustical quality studies are also discussed. The article concludes with a brief review of sound-diffusing surfaces based on a number theory. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2012 APA, all rights reserved)
