    Hi All,

    Just a couple videos to show:

    If you don't have headphones (non-binauralised):

    If you DO have headphones (binauralised):

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQlKPaKNCPY

    I will add more details here if people are interested!! I would really like to hear any feedback, as well as your ideas for streaming audio back into Unity directly into audio sources so that Unity3D can do the panning rather than Max/MSP :p.

    Also, if you would like to use my demo package, suggest some ways that I could share it and I will (Works on Windows AND Mac without needing Max/MSP)!! (~100MB)

    First off this is extremely exciting and motivating to see. The potential for this (as well as what you've already touched on in your project) is huge. Personally I'm quite curious as to how you've managed to get Unity speaking out to max/msp. How is all of this communicating?
    Good work on this, very impressive stuff!

    Hey Thanks! It uses a Unity3D C# script that creates a TCP connection with the "netreceive" object (developed by Olaf Matthes) in Max. The communication system was put together by a team at Virginia Tech; you can see a video of their project here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=137huPA9sto

    You could use MultiUpload. And that's pretty cool!

    Ive always been fascinated by binaural sound, it could open up a lot of possibilities for great educational experiences as well as games and suchlike, so this is great, i'll be following with interest

    Agree - huge potential in this!

    Please post the project so we can all push it ahead. I'm using Unity in a dome environment and want to see if we can move from binaural to 5.1. Fun!

    That sounds (ahh cheap pun) pretty neat. Would be cool to look at all the code and what not.

    P.s.
    Try Dropbox it's pretty good for these things.

    Why don't you upload it to the Asset store ?
    Put a price tag on it too :)
