A new recording technique based on multichannel digital signal processing is suggested. A dummy head is modeled as a rigid sphere with four -ears- (microphones). Successful reproduction of the recorded signals can be achieved all around a single listener using four loudspeakers in an anechoic environment, thus dealing with the problem of front-back confusion that appears with current dummy head recordings.
