Dear surr-sounders,

Please check out a website I made numinous3d.com <http://numinous3d.com/> where 
I have done a 3D mix of a friend's track (which is currently in the top 10 on 
beatport.com <http://beatport.com/> psychedelic trance section**). The website 
is and interactive VR experience which transports you to the SPIRAL studio at 
the University of Huddersfield, UK where I mixed the piece in HOA. It includes 
some fascinating visualisation of the HOA soundfield done with Blue Ripple 
Sound’s O3A Flare (thanks Richard!). Be warned that the website is a bit slow 
to load and works best on desktop chrome/firefox (recent version). it does work 
for me with my iphone and google cardboard when I have a decent internet 
connection*. It also works well on desktop windows with the HTC Vive in 
Firefox. On the website you will hear a two channel binaural mix that I have 
done by re-recording different elements of the HOA mix in the Applied 
Psychoacoustics Lab (APL) listening room using a Neumann KU100 dummy head, and 
mixing that with direct sound (kick & bass) and 5OA decoded to binaural, where 
the room impression from the KU100 didn't work.

You can also listen to that binaural mix on soundcloud:

<https://soundcloud.com/olilarkin/pogo-sonicspecies-numinous-3d-binaural-mix>

I've uploaded a 360 video version to both facebook and youtube, which both use 
head tracked binauralisers. There I am a bit less in control of the mix. It's 
interesting how different the bass and spatialisation sounds on facebook (where 
I've uploaded 2nd order Ambix audio) versus youtube (where I've uploaded 1st 
order Ambix audio) 

Youtube 360 version: http://youtu.be/qUTNqWWIF0k <http://youtu.be/qUTNqWWIF0k>

Facebook 360 version: http://goo.gl/9kZG5V <http://goo.gl/9kZG5V>

If anyone would like the high quality, uncompressed versions of the binaural 
mix or 1OA -> 5OA files to play in your studio please contact me directly. 

I'm very interested to hear your feedback on this. If you “like” it please do 
click the button on facebook / soundcloud / youtube!

best regards,

Oli Larkin

* the music is 8 minutes long and is supplied as stereo track in a webm/mp4 
video file. the video file is ~20 mb (webm) / ~40mb (mp4) . Originally I wanted 
to include options to render head tracked binaural on the website using 
omnitone.js, but I wasn’t able to implement that at this stage. What I really 
should do is do the visualisation as a shader thus losing the video, and 
meaning that 8 minutes of 16 channel TOA is reasonable.
