Introducing the concept of the Head Related Transfer Function (HRTF), Professional Broadcast Audio Specialist Paul MacDonald, describes how the human hearing system is modelled to provide sound engineers with powerful tools to build the immersive audio experience. Objects, including scenes and beds are explained. And ambisonic 360-degree sound fields are uncovered.
