The BBC has a video on YouTube that demonstrates how binaural sound works: This is where we start to get into the realm of “3D sound,” which has become something of an umbrella term for several immersive recording formats, including binaural. The differences in binaural sound can be heard while using headphones and sounds more dynamic and realistic. This helps to recreate the natural way we experience sound, with certain sounds registering at different volumes depending on their position of origin.
