Binaural Location v1.0

Before to start here is a part of the App Store Description:

Binaural Location goes beyond the simple pan control; it allows you to place your audio at
a specific location anywhere in a virtual space around the listener. The location of the L and
R control points on the screen controls the location of two virtual speakers. Based on the
angle and distance from the speakers to the listener's ears, the app creates a realistic
impression that the sound is actually coming from the specific location of the L and R
points.
ls it just a fancy pan control?
No. This plugin models three different aspects of the sound location at the same time, and
none of them is a pan control:
1. The delay due to the distance between the sound source and the listener's left and
right ears.
2. When the left ear hears sound coming from the right side, it gets less high-frequency
clarity because the sound waves are coming around from the other side of the head.
3. The volume of the sound changes depending on the distance between the listener and

the speakers.

​
So that's it.
So what can we musicians and sound engineers do with us?
The first thing that comes to mind is to use it to place sound in a space. For music, but also for movies.
Sure, Binaural Location can do this and much more better than a simple pan because of the algorithm they created for this
The second thing is to use it in music for Sound Fx, noises, reverse cymbal, all this kind of things that we use to use in music.
And it's sure that Binaural Location will add a big little plus for this purpose.
The third thing is to insert it in a track. A keyboard, Pad, Percussion, arpeggiator,...
And here again, the rendering can be quite awesome, especially when using the Orbit function: the sound revolves around the two L & R points, which will create a Phase or Chorus when the two points cross each other...
It is up to you to find the best position by linking or not the L & R point and moving them in space.
Great for Drones....
The third way (but there are certainly many more) is to place it on an auxiliary.
Behind another effect.
A Reverb, a delay, or else.
The rendering may be more discreet but also more surprising at the end of a Reverb for example.

In conclusion.
For those who think that it's nice, but want a more fhashy effect, more, more, more, more, more,... You're mistaken.
Binaural Location despite its very few Setting, glamorous words (for sound engineers and musicians I mean) is a hyper creative App.
It is up to you to find out how and where to use it.

Binaural Location goes beyond the simple pan control; it allows you to place your audio at
a specific location anywhere in a virtual space around the listener. The location of the L and
R control points on the screen controls the location of two virtual speakers. Based on the
angle and distance from the speakers to the listener's ears, the app creates a realistic
impression that the sound is actually coming from the specific location of the L and R
points.

No. This plugin models three different aspects of the sound location at the same time, and
none of them is a pan control:
1. The delay due to the distance between the sound source and the listener's left and
right ears.
2. When the left ear hears sound coming from the right side, it gets less high-frequency
clarity because the sound waves are coming around from the other side of the head.
3. The volume of the sound changes depending on the distance between the listener and
the speakers.
​
Does this plugin work for listeners who use speakers instead of headphones? It is designed to work with headphones. If you listen with speakers, it will sound fine, but
you won't get the immersive effect of binaural audio.
How is this useful for making music?
This is a creative effect. One interesting thing you can do is enable the orbit mode, which
modulates the location of the left and right sound sources in real time, moving them around
the room in an orbit around the listener. You'll hear the Doppler effect gently shifting the
pitch up and down and the sounds move closer and farther from your ears, and the volume
sways up and down in accordance with the changes in distance. This is a nice effect,
similar to a Leslie speaker and a little bit like a stereo chorus but with more emphasis on the
modulated filtering than on pitch shifting. It works especially well with reverb, and makes a
sound like a modulated reverb effect.

    6. My rating... The first criterion is the App Store description. The last one is my taste and this is totally subjective...

    7. If I really don't like an App, don't understand it or found too many bugs, I send an email to the developer.... I asked him if the App will be update shortly, I also offer my services as Beta Tester.... Most of the time, I will wait for a future update... Developers are humans too!...
