- You'll need headphones for this to work. Make sure there is no noise around, close your eyes, turn the volume up a little bit, hold and press headphone on your ears for better hearing, play it and enjoy this impressive audio work ( illusion ). Not a screamer not a prank!
Audio credit: The original audio is created by QSound Lab. I put it into this video and uploaded about 14 years ago to CZcams. See www.qsound.com/demos/binaural... - Věda a technologie
This is the grandpa of ASMR.
Grandfather.

I would say uncle as bob ross is the grandfather

Let’s be honest. This isn’t the first time you’ve seen this. Anyway how are the new headphones?
Pretty good thanks :)
Meh.
Update 1: Buy some new ones and they work great, the ones I had before were rubbish
Pretty good
A definite steal
Pretty good but they’re hard to sleep in!
I'm bald, so I come here often to pretend I have hair for a few minutes.
Underrated Comment 😂
Lmao... Self satisfaction .... 😂 "Virtually"
This video is 15 years old and still the best one so far. He did it when nobody even knew what was ASMR. Today, in every ASMR video they just whisper and crackle. This guy was a genius.
This was actually never intended to be an ASMR/relaxing video.
This was an advertisement/audio test for a hearing aid company that was recorded in 1996.
The term ASMR was invented in 2010, 3 years after this video was even uploaded, and almost 2 decades after this audio was recorded. The plan was for Qsound to show off the new technology of their binaural audio algorithm named Cetera, however, after the company went out of business this audio was uploaded to youtube and gained popularity in the "proto-asmr" community due to the fact ASMR as a concept was beginning to be understood more.
Incredible, every single word you said was wrong
Try 1996 actually
derp
This has never triggered my ASMR
2 alternatives here:
> mario and luigi are giving you a weird haircut
> the italian mafia is torturing you in a very gentle way

@@AquaMelon they use a 360 mic where sound can be heard from one side to the other.

I am doing some research on 3D audio now. 27 years past and this is still one of the best example of 3D audio..
3D Sound Studio is a personal recommendation of mine. It's pretty similar and very high quality too
Found this treasure on Reddit. OP said I'd get tingles... and he was right as rain.
If anyone is curious what the story behind this is. There is a now defunct company called QSound Labs that were pioneers in the 3d audio space back in the 90s. They made both hardware and software integrations of their tech which found it's way into arcade games and movies (Capcom was a customer of theirs).
They made this particular audio clip in 1996 for one of their customers, Starkey Labs. Starkey was using an implementation of the 3d tech to produce hearing aids that would allow the wearer to tell what direction sound was coming from. Previous hearing aids had one mic and one speaker per hearing aid, meaning that they just amplified whatever sound was coming in. You'd be able to tell left from right as the volume would be different in each ear, but you couldn't tell if a sound was coming from behind or in front of you. In human hearing we are able to tell front from back due to the shape of our ears. The cartilage that makes up the external part of your ear is obviously more prominent on the back side of your ear, this causes a muffling of sounds from behind that has a specific frequency signature, our brain interprets this as things behind us.
This recording was created as an ad of sorts for Starkey's new Cetera hearing aids that featured an algorithmic system that would add these frequency changes to allow the wearer to better pick up direction of the sounds they were haring.
They have this recording and more on their site www.qsound.com/demos/binaural-audio.htm

I'm using headphones I normally don't use. I was listening to binaural ASMR vids claiming to be in 3D and 4K and all this stuff, but I wasn't hearing any differentiation between the left & right audio. So I came here to test if my headphones can do this and it worked perfectly. These newer videos don't hold a candle to this one.
Because this one was actually made by professional audio engineers, ASMRtists don't even remotely hold a candle to these guys.

this video is the reason I realized I like ear-to-ear tingles and then discovered asmr videos later. I was so excited and shocked at how wonderful this video was and still is, when I first heard it.
I can't believe I still remember this. It was my first introduction to ASMR and I've been hooked ever since. This is seriously the perfect audio so well done.
Not even the most popular ASMRtists have this quality
because white 3dio is overprised piece of ****. Worse sound quality that 10$ lav mic. I think you can equalize the sound when editing, but youtubers never do that.
@@mlsterlous what is a good asmr mic in your opinion? Just for curiosity
@@mlsterlous what mic did they use for this? And why is this literally like the one video of its kind after like 15 years? Did they use a super expensive mic or something?
@@cauasousa8227 its really how you use the mic. A lot of CZcamsrs have really expensive mics but they sound terrible because they record in a room with bad acoustics and noise. If you learn how your mic functions and understand how to get the sound you envision, that's the best mic. Differnet mics react to different sounds and environments.
@@tjl2836 I get it, I don't know anything about microphones so this information is very interesting. Does sound editing also count? Is there a way to edit or improve a "3D" sound like this?

This is a technique called Binaural Audio. It's been a round a while but has become more popular with the rise of virtual reality. You basically use a fake head with a microphone in each ear and send each microphone input to the correct stereo output. It's a really fun method to play with and what's great about it is it doesn't require the listener to own specialist equipment.

keegan112099 i really wonder why!!
Many old games come sorta close to this, if you use the right sound card and set them up correctly. You can use any Creative X-Fi model sound card and activate CMSS-3D in its control panel under game mode, and play games that use DirectSound3D or OpenAL for sound, or an old Aureal Vortex 2 sound card for games that use A3D for sound. It was pretty impressive, sadly this tech has not been used in most newer games, but now with the advent of VR, this might return, Nvidia is already working on their Nvidia VRWorks Audio tech which works similarly to the old A3D tech.

Man, I really want a remastered version of this using modern audio encoding.
whats weird is all the ones that ARE with new equipment do not sound nearly as good.
There wouldn't really be a way to make it "sound better" nowadays, considering that the original is already mixed very well. What could be done nowadays that it is rendered with real-time headtracking (requires hardware). In this way you'd be able to turn freely turn your head while listening, which helps to further improve the spatial impression and increase immersion.
