It's a shame because if you set them carefully right across your mix, the small differences all add up!

It helps me figure out why delay sounds different when it comes to 3d sound. Thank for taking out the time to conduct this experiment.

Very informative, I have been looking for information on 3d sound placement for a while. I think this might actually help me, wish me luck :P Great blog!

If you are lucky enough to have a binaural mic set, this would be even better!! Great write up by the way!

BTW. Another obvious and simple way to re-create a 3D space in a mix is to record an instrument in your recording studio with a distant microphone. Thus you simplify the process without the need for artificial reverbs. This works great for percussion, vocal effects, even electric guitars. Also try experimenting with stereo miking techniques like M/S. imo, A neat way to save on processing whilst mixing. Peace Josef Horhay www.acoosticzoo.com - recording studios brisbane.

If you delay the left channel by about a millisecond or less, the sound will appear to come from the right side, even though both channels are at the same volume. This comes from the fact that sound travels about 1 foot/millisecond, so sound coming from your right side will hit your right ear a little less than a millisecond before it hits the left ear, and up to a millisecond for people with really fat heads. Of course this is combined with reflections and filtering. Also this really only has the desired effect if listening on headphones. If done wrong, it can have sort of a head turning effect on loudspeakers, so you need to be a bit careful. Your comment on Haas effect is a bit off.
