Surround Sound Test 7.1

I've got cheap sennheiser hd 202 headphones and use razer 7.1 surround program that costs 17 dollars or 14 euro and can tell exactly where every shot is coming from and what distance it's being shot from, if it's up the hill, behind the hill, in a building, where in the building. Used the program for 6 months now, with multiple games and works great. Specially for games like this. You can buy a expensive 7.1 headset or if you want something cheaper that does the same thing, check out the program. I know a 7.1 headset is probably better, but this program does the job very well, good enough for me.

DTS Demo Trailers HD have digital audio encoding surround system that allows 6 independent surround audio channels into a single DTS compressed signal. Apart from being used for DTS trailers, DTS also used in films and “special places” such as theme parks or virtual simulators, in which case can hold up to 8 independent DTS surround channels into a single signal, and can synchronize multiple signals to get a fully independent unlimited number of channels. Logitech G430 7.1 surround sound gaming headset with lightweight, performance ear cups, and digital USB balances performance and comfort. Dugometrazni crtani na hrvatskom jeziku.

Something to consider also. You only have 2 ears (hence, 2 channels) to which to interpret spatial audio, which is a bunch of software hacks anyway. Your brain is responsible for your ability to sense sound spatially, but technically you're only receiving it on two microphones. You're much better off just sticking with 2 channel stereo, and overall, we're better off with a game that is a well-engineered 2 channel audio game than having Bluehole chase tweaking 7.1 forever and never having it be 100%. In general, you're better off staying with a quality 2.1 headset than screwing around with 7.1.

Whatever marketing language 7.1 headsets use, they're a waste of money. Originally posted by:Something to consider also.

Your brain is responsible for your ability to sense sound spatially, but technically you're only receiving it on two microphones. Thats what 7.1 does, you have Front, Front Left, Left, Back Left, Front Right, Right, Back Right. Using digital 7.1 software acts like the brain and puts it out through the speakers in such a way that it is distinguishable to the ladder direction output.

You have 2 ears (or channels as you put it) however you can easily tell direction of sound in the real world whether it is behind you, infront of you or to the side. True 7.1 headsets are no cheaper than 290$ (from when I last checked) in which they literally have 4 tiny speakers on each ear to mimic the sounds according to direction. Digital 7.1 does this in such a way that the speaker gives sound to where it seems like it is surround (you can test this by using digital 7.1 or 5.1 software testing). The software I use can also customize the volume of each 'channel' so I can have my left and right rear sounds to be much louder than the front making it seem like its true 7.1 when in reality it is not. All i know is in my experience with PUBG i have 'surround sound' and I can easily tell where shots/planes/vehicles are located without turning to focus on it.

Any notion you have about sound above, below, front or back, is all synthesized within your brain. That's your brain doing it. Surround sound in a headset is useless.

Surround sound in a physical room (such as a theater) is about where you are physically positioned in relation to the sound source. So in a large room, if you're positioned left-rear from the screen, then your experience of the sound will be different than someone who is seated right-front. Ask anybody who does sound engineering - especially foley work - about this and they will tell you that 7.1 in a headset is just a gimmick. I have field recorders that I've taken into situations like Grand Central Station, with mics set up to mimic how human ears work positionally. That is just two channel audio output to two channel headset, but you can clearly tell what direction sound is coming from. Because the spatial expansion of that sound happens in the mind.

You can download these from Dolby but the best thing is to get a high quality samples or get a good DVD surround sound setup disc. The disc will put your system to the max. Most of what you will find on the web is simulated surround, that is why I recommend finding some true discrete samples of 5.1/7.1. Forgot to add links, hehe. Dolby site: various including, Dolby, DTS, THX and etc: Quality will depend on your decoder.

A nice AV sound processor helps a lot for true discrete surround. Happy surround listening, the Prisoner. Try this: It had me looking around a few times, feeling like an idiot. These are stereo samples, if this sounds like surround to you, then you probably have. Looking for true 5.1 and 7.1 samples is a real pain in the ass. Wheres the old school buzzing fly? I remember a surroundtest where the fly really seems to fly arround your head.

But now all they have are PR tests were there are so many sounds at once, you cant tell the precise effect of each surround channel. TheePrisoner gave the links for the official dolby test.
