I like to listen to music with headphones while lying down. Some songs sound “wrong”, and I understand that is because the original recording was made for an upright head.
So if an instrument or voice was supposed to sound like it was in front of you, now it sounds like it’s coming from someone crawling across my ceiling.
It’s an insignificant and stupid problem so I don’t know what to search for lmao


You’re wearing headphones, the timing doesn’t change whether you’re upright or laying down. There’s nothing to fix, because this perceived problem is caused by you physically laying down. In-room speakers may provide what you’re trying to achieve. Otherwise, close your eyes and get lost in the music, so what if it’s coming from the ceiling? lol
Yes, the timing and balance does not change whether the source is directly in front of, behind, above or below you, but people still tell these apart somehow. I think it’s the frequency response of sound from different directions reflecting off earlobes.
I know the timing is the same. I’m asking if there is a technique that can emulate different timings with an existing recording or master
