The blueprint of the spatial sonic field
from Helmut Oellers
That animation shows the propagation of the direct wave front by a single sound source and its first reflections from recording room. Conventionally audio cannot reproduce correctly this complex spatial structure, that's impossible by means of phantom acoustic sources. The both first chapters at this website are describing the reasons.
Chapter 3 and 4 characterize new ways for synthesizing virtual copy of the recording room sonic field by loudspeakers at home. This Wave Field Synthesis and derivate Holophony procedure no longer remain dependent psychoacoustic principles. Its virtual acoustic sources not capable differentiate physically from actual wave fronts.
Thus, the playback no longer will differ regarding the genuine event.
