Ok. We are now faced with SACD, DVD-A and now AT&T is leading us to believe there is even better multi-channel. Here is the question. Are we rapidly approaching the day where our digital audio players are out of date the minute we walk out the door of our local audio dealer with them? A situation similar to the modern computer market. Cheers, Doug
Uh oh....
AT&T Labs Takes You There Live, Virtually
"AT&T Labs said Friday it has invented a new recording
technology that reproduces the sensation of being at live
events with uncanny accuracy. AT&T Labs sees the technology as a standard fornext-generation live event recording and playback,which can be streamed over broadband connections,
downloaded on the Internet, and recorded on DVD, the company said. The new recording technology captures the most perceptible parts of direct and reflected sound waves in a concert hall or other venue, AT&T (stock: T) said. At
its heart is a specially designed seven-microphone array
that captures parts of the sound field that are most
audible by the human ear and mixes them down to five
channels for delivery."
