[disclaimer: I never owned a DVD or blueray player, I am more into pure audio stuff than video/hometheater, being 95% of time on headphones]
I sometimes wonder, if this idea was already realized in some format, maybe I missed it due to forementioned.
Say you have a digital recording which was captured using separate mics for each "instrument" (including voice). Listener has ability to adjust volume level of each stream according to his preference (1) or in order to "analyze" it (2).
1. For example I enjoy very much cymbals - and consequently the "out of box" sound profile of many Beyer Dynamic headphones which tend to accentuate the frequency region cymbals reside (but of course in a headphone sound profile based simple on FR you get the "full package" of sounds from that frequency region).
2. Or I mentioned in another thread that I love songs featuring 3 guitars (in addition to bass guitar). Sometimes they are intentionally "positioned" in the mixing process to be distinguishable in regard to stereo channels but there are also titles in which they are so mixed up it is almost "mindf**k" In these cases I would appreciate to have a possibility to filter them "one by one" to have an easy analytic listen
Wouldn't it be beatiful if instead of pursuing huge sized "high-res" releases (with no real benefit for majority missing "bat genes") the possibility of current technology (streaming and storage of large files) is used for something more reasonable, like I outlined?
Imagine this interface you have accesible in your smartphone, in your DAP, in TV/video player, standardized and with a set of available "layers" depending on particular recording - all this embedded within a single data file, like "Lady Gaga - Audiophile anthem.msr":
[you may find a multi-mic setup for drum kit an "overkill", if so, just imagine another set of "layers".]
