3D Audio Effect

3D Audio Effect

3D audio effects are a group of sound effects that manipulate the image produced by stereo speakers, surround-sound speakers, speaker-arrays, or headphones. This frequently involves the virtual placement of sound sources anywhere in 3 dimensional space, including behind, above or below the listener.

There are several types of 3D audio effects:

  • Those that only widen the stereo image by modifying phase information.
  • Those that can place sounds outside the stereo basis.
  • Those that include a complete 3D simulation.

Famous quotes containing the word effect:

    To get time for civic work, for exercise, for neighborhood projects, reading or meditation, or just plain time to themselves, mothers need to hold out against the fairly recent but surprisingly entrenched myth that “good mothers” are constantly with their children. They will have to speak out at last about the demoralizing effect of spending day after day with small children, no matter how much they love them.
    —Wendy Coppedge Sanford. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, introduction (1978)
