BACCH plugin

BACCH technology revolutionizes stereo sound reproduction. It was developed by Edgar Choueiri, a Princeton professor, and it focuses on crosstalk cancellation to create an immersive and realistic audio experience. The technology tackles the problem of stereo recordings not accurately reproducing sound localization in real life. Instead of manufacturing a phantom image, BACCH leverages the natural differences in arrival time, amplitude, and tonality between the listener’s ears to create precise localization. It overcomes the issue of inter-aural crosstalk that occurs when sound is reproduced from two loudspeakers.

BACCH stands for “Band-Assembled Crosstalk Cancellation Hierarchy” and it introduces a novel approach to crosstalk cancellation. The technology avoids introducing any coloration or distortion to the audio signal, ensuring a transparent and natural listening experience.
