How can most music that’s playing from headphones have separate sounds for each ear?
In: Technology
Stereo. The music is recorded with two microphones and the sounds from each are stored separately on different “tracks”. Then they are sent to their respective sides of the headphones. Stereo records were a big deal, the two separate sounds are reflected on their respective sides of the record groove. Now a days it is digitally separated.
We also have things like 7.1 surround sound which are, get it, 8 separate audio tracks all with their own speaker to give the illusion of different things happening in all directions.
