IR and convolution on cans - how far we are from this?

Actually, you never asked that in your OP. You asked:

The answer "No", totally applies.

Your next statement/question was.....
I sincerely think that it IS possible and that overtime someone will release a tool able to do that. What do you fellows think about this?

"No" also makes total sense as a response to that.

Rami just tell him what he wants to hear. That's the only answer anyone wants.

I was scared to even respond. Now, I might have to scroll through a 21 paragraph response that I'll stop reading after the first 2 paragraphs and need to take a nap. :D

Dont nap with headphones on. It will give you an unrealistic sleeping experience.

Yes, but if I ignore physics, common sense, the past experience of thousands of other people, and the truth, I can convince myself of anything. Besides, I can't afford an expensive bed, so my headphone nap experience is just as good no matter what the actual truth is. That's my bullshit story and I'm sticking to it. :D
 
Ok. I'll buy that. But the absolute best place for a nap is in one of those egg chairs with a joint. As long as you don't set yourself on fire.

But I wouldn't know anything about that.
Was it real, or just a case of being stuck in a dream?


Oh shit, did I just date myself? Anyone have any idea what I'm talking about???

Context is everything. :)

But did you like how smooth that fit in there?

Haha, and you were sharp enough to catch it.

I'm always impressed and extremely flattered when someone remembers ANYTHING about any of my tunes, let alone a title. :cool:
 
Okay. I'm revolted enough by mention of KFC to return to the original question.

It MIGHT be possible (though I'm a sceptic) but who's going to do it? The home recording community is tiny compared to the billions of headphone and earbud users out there--and what's required for monitoring is very different than Joe Public wants.

Commercially available headphones/earbuds are designed to sound "good" rather than "accurate". This usually means extravagant bass and a "sheen" on vocals and highs. For that matter, this applies to a lot of speakers.

On the other hand, monitoring (whether speakers or mythical headphones) wants to give a very neutral and accurate image of a recording--and that means warts and all (not that anybody who's read all the FAQs here will record warty tracks! :) )

So, even if it is (or becomes) technically possible, surely the potential market is pretty small. In a world where 9/10ths of people think Beatz make great sounding headphones, who's going to pay for accurate monitors other than a very small number of home recordists.
 
Not for mixing you don't. Well, maybe YOU do, but that's a whole other story.
