This Instructable will show you how to very simply create a stereo microphone set for
BINAURAL RECORDING.
Binaural recording is a technique of recording sound with two microphones approximately
as far apart as your ears (facing outward obviously) on a rig, mannequin head or maybe just worn like earphones for when your listening to something you want to remember.when listened to in stereo headphones this type of recording can help you accurately gauge the direction of the sounds you are listening to by ratio of volume in each ear, creating the kind of realism you don't get anywhere else, which makes this project great for recording things like meetings you want to remember with any clarity as it will remind you of where everyone around was sitting giving your memory the jolt it sometimes needs, it is also great for music technicians and blog/vloggers as you can record and know where the drummers, guitarists and of course singers are in comparison to the microphones when listening over and let your viewers know where you are in comparison to your camera/ mic when blog/vlogging.
