Hector,
For me there was a good sense of space and kids running from side to
side but they seemed to run through or behind me instead of in front.

Hello Eric,
Very interesting post. I was a bit intrigued by what you had to say
regarding binaural recordings and the lack of sense of space.
Reproducing a sense of space is something that has interested me a
lot as a sound artist and I've been experimenting with building
different types of binaural mics. Here is an example recording I made:

If I close my eyes I can really feel the space and the kids running
in front of me, and not inside my head, but I wonder how would other
people perceive it (I'm very familiar with the space where this was
recorded so I wonder if that influences my perception). I've been
also experimenting with recordings made with a first order mic
decoded to stereo binaural with head tracking and indeed the sense
of space works quite well, although I have to say that not as
defined as the stereo binaural recordings (which might be a flaw on
my process which I'm still refining).
Cheers,
Hector

audiometric headphones, and my work-horse AKG K240 studio
'phones--but I've yet to hear a binaural recording that replicates
live sound--practically everything gives the usual "in-the-head"
