Convention Paper

Abstract

A group of 8 students engaged in a Tonmeister training program were
presented with multichannel loudspeaker reproductions of a set of
solo piano performances, and were asked to complete two attribute
rating sessions that were well separated in time. Five of the 8
listeners produced highly consistent ratings after a 6 month period
during which they received further Tonmeister training. Physical
predictors for the obtained attribute ratings were developed from
the analysis of binaural recordings of the piano reproductions in
order to support comparison between these stimuli and other
stimuli, and thereby to establish a basis for independent variation
in the attributes to serve both creative artistic goals and further
scientific exploration of such multichannel music reproductions.
