The guy actually had an interesting idea. In fact, the same one I had many years ago.
Take, say, a 5-piece band. Record each musician to one track each. Master it in some way that would allow each track to be played through it's own channel but at the same time as all other channels. Then play the resultant sound through dedicated 5-way transducers.
Of course, there are many pitfalls to be found. But the basic premise is not daft. It just won't ever happen.

That earpiece was designed for a full orchestra Gordon. It covers whale to gnat frequencies, Ron.
He had a real problem with communication though. He seemed to attack everyone. I dodn't get a troll award though, so you did well to get 6, Gordon!!
I have heard something similar with speakers but not headphones. Ie .... Live shows, where each instrument has it's own speaker, but more often, the sound is fed into a mixer which can sent it all around the place, so while playing, my sound could whoosh around the room if need be!!

I heard sound whoosh around the room once, back in the seventies. But I don't think was because of a mixer or speakers!

Funny thing is that you get none of it while you're performing. You're blissfully unaware.
One effect I find odd to do is to mic the drum kit so that each drum has one on it and the sounds are directed to completely different places. I've always found that a bit odd since it's kind of unnatural.

His definition of multi-channel seemed to change like the weather. At one point he seemed to just want a multi-driver IEM with each driver assigned to various parts of the FR (plenty of BA & BA + dynamic hybrids do that) and then we seemed to go to a 6 driver set-up with one for each part of the band e.g. 1 for vocal, 1 for bass guitar. What I'm not sure of is what would happen if you wanted to listen to a 100 piece orchestra.... Ian's earpiece would work for sure but insertion would sting like a beeyatch unless you were seriously lubed up Edit: I was still reading page 1 when I responded so apologies if I've just re-treaded what's been posted since..

The part I liked was the dialog with the Cherry ice cream.
