A festival of nine lessons and carols: Surround sound experiment
This Christmas the BBC is conducting a surround sound experiment. You can find out more about what we are doing and why we are doing it by reading this blog post by Rupert Brun.
BBC R&D are involved with one aspect of this experiment. We are investigating ways of improving the experience for people listening to our content using headphones.
The short video above explains how and why we are doing this.
We have created a number of different versions of 2007's A Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols. Each of the versions has been processed in a different manner. At the beginning of each version of the service an audio test sequence plays, giving you time to decide if you like that version or not. You do not need to listen to the entirety of each version in order to take part.
To take part follow this link to hear our recordings (make sure you put on your headphones).
To fill in the survey and provide us with some feedback please follow this link.
I hope you enjoy the experiment and have a happy Christmas.
