4.8 C3D HRTF Positional Audio

4.8.1 What is HRTF?

The technology of C3D using an audio filter called Head Related Transfer
Functions (HRTFs). HRTF is a set of audio filters which are varying locations
of sound effects (spatial hearing cues) in three-dimension measured from
listener's eardrum. Using this technology and special digital signal processing
to re-create spatial hearing cues makes our ears to hear a realistic and
three-dimensional sounds coming from a pairs of loud speakers or
headphones.

4.8.2 How to listen to C3D sound correctly and properly?

1. Use headphones to have much better effect
When you use headphones in listening, there will less interference such as
outside voices or room reflections comparing to using speakers.
2. Choose correct output devices
Choose the correct output devices in the options of demo program in
accordance with what listening devices you want to listen to. Because listening
through speakers must be proceeded by crosstalk cancellation, if you choose
the wrong output devices, there won't be any 3D positional audio effect..
