Sound source replication system

A system for replicating directional sound comprising:

• an audio detecting device configured to detect a plurality of sound signals emitted by a sound source in a recording space and to record the plurality of sound signals to a storage media;
• an electronic device configured to determine a main direction of emission of each of the plurality of sound signals using time variable directional characteristics;
• an audio reproduction device configured to reproduce the plurality of sound signals in an area of reproduction and includes a first reproduction unit associated with the sound source and at least one second reproduction unit in an different area from the first reproduction unit,
• wherein the second reproduction unit is configured to reproduce the plurality of sound signals with a time delay relative to the first reproduction unit.

A method for recording and reproducing a plurality of sound signals with time variable characteristics comprising:

• detecting a plurality of sound signals emitted by a sound source in a recording space;
• recording the plurality of sound signals emitted by the sound source;
• determining, in a time variable manner, a main direction of emission of the plurality sound signals;
• and
• reproducing the plurality of sound signals based on the main direction of emission using a first reproduction unit associated with the sound source and at least one second reproduction unit spaced apart from the first reproduction unit;
• wherein the main direction of emission is simulated during the reproduction with the at least one second reproduction unit using time delays relative to the first reproduction unit.
