Hi JonaHmnn!
You are on the money with my work flow for binaural monitoring! I leverage the control room for a number of plugs. Such as DearVR Monitor and Immerse to name a couple. I bring everything back into Nuendo from DAPS leveraging the both the multiple fold down options & their Binaural Headphone stereo live encoding.
As Shellymoreira pointed out earlier, Max has a great wealth of knowledge and solid tips to also keep an eye on! I stated this earlier but really just love having as many options on the plate to flip between as possible when listening to a mix. Each tool can reveal something different about your mix. They truly really are all unique and as we all know… being tweaked by their makers as time passes.
One thing I want to point to that has began to raise a bit of concern in the community is that it is now questionable the accuracy of apple’s binaural decoder. The question has been raised how they are managing the binaural distance metadata, “if at all”. The current running belief is that they have tweaked this portion of the decode process to either subvert an extra license fee and or to lessen the cpu hit. I am just throwing this out there since it was something I read recently and felt it worth sharing with the community.
Have fun everyone and enjoy the weekend ahead!
