He's commenting about ways to monophonically record live music that
are performed stereophonically.

Shows how vanishing small your knowledge of audio really is, Pseudo-Borg.
Music is performed in multichannel - a minimum of one channel per performer.

He support the idea that listening
binaurally from a single source during playback leads to musical
realism.

While most recordings present a soundstage with far more separation then the
corresponding live event, it is not uncommon for live events to have some
audible separation and clearly audible soundstaging of musical sources. With
a stereo or mulitchannel recordings it is possible to create audio signals
with less, and therefore more appropriate levels of separation. However,
with a mono signal you are pretty well stuck with absolutely zero separation
of sound sources.

It is possible to take a mono signal and add some degree of natural
spaciousness. Basically, you play it through speakers in a room with a fair
amount of hopefully euphonic natural reverberation. Or, you something
similar electronically. Then you re-record it in some flavor of
multichannel, perhaps even just stereo. Mix the re-recorded sound with the
origional to suit, and on a good day you might even fool some listeners into
believing that the soundstage-trashing mono step never happened.

I suppose that he prefers to be transported back into the live
performance, but I don't see any pure strategy from the scheme
above.

Agreed.

Well, I guess we need more sample of ways to listen binaurally. Know of
any?

Try headphones or earphones, mixing down from a multichannel master. I do it
all the time, and its really pretty nice.
