I am late to the party, but here is waht I think about this product. The idea of OOYH is good, but the fact that the author is using his own HRTF(or someone else's single HRTF) is the biggest problem here. You can't simply assume that his(or someone else's) single HRTF of a preset will match general public's HRTF. This is why other companies such as Dolby and Sony use HATSs that comply very specific standards that can accommodate broader range of audiences. Unless many of the parameters of HRTF, such as head width, size(x,y,z) of the pinna, amount of hair, etc, can be accounted for, and they can all be adjusted individually, this software just doesn't work except to the author(or somebody who measured the speakers) himself.
On the other hand, the measurement of speakers neither seem to be taken within a acoustically-controlled reference room nor taken with a reference-quality microphone. It is really quite a bit of shame for such brilliant idea.

Photonet100Thanks @Photonet100, Since you published your code publicly, I went ahead and deactivated your license redemption code.
Please send your information via e-mail to "info at fongaudio dot com". I need your first and last name and the e-mail address you want to use. I also need to know which speaker preset you want to license.
I can then e-mail you a license file.
Thanks, -Darin

Thanks to everyone who joined this drop! All codes will be emailed out tomorrow. Please see the following instructions on how to redeem your license code for the Out of Your Head Virtual Speaker Software.
In order to use your license redemption code, you must first download and install the trial version of Out Of Your Head. (The license process must be initiated from within the running Out Of Your Head software.)
To download the software, just download and install the trial version from here: (Windows or Mac version)
http://fongaudio.com/out-of-your-head-trial-download/
(The Mac OS X trial download link is the 2nd link on the page, so you may have to scroll down.)
Note: If you already downloaded Out Of Your Head, please check our download page it again. There may be a new version with bug fixes available .
For Windows users, you must uninstall any previous version of Out Of Your Head, before installing the new version. You can just select "Start\Program Files\Darin Fong Audio\Uninstall Out Of Your Head" or use the Windows "Programs and Features" control panel to uninstall Out Of Your Head.
Then download and install the new version, from our website:
http://fongaudio.com/out-of-your-head-trial-download/
Once the software is installed and working, take your time and go through the presets to see which one you want to purchase.
When you have decided on the preset you want to license, double click on the preset name.
(You must initiate the purchase from the computer that you want to license.)
Enter your e-mail address in the box that appears and press Enter.
A web browser windows will open. You will have to create an account on our website if it is the first time visiting our online store. (The license is also associated with your account on my store.)
Once that's done, go to the "Out Of Your Head License with Preset" item in the store:
Use the store menu and click on "Out Of Your Head". Then select the third item on that page, "Out Of Your Head License with Preset"
On that page, select the speaker preset you want to license in the drop down menu.
Then click "Add to Cart" to add the item to your shopping cart.
When you are ready to checkout, go to your shopping cart.
Retrieve your unique one time use code from https://www.massdrop.com/transactions under your purchase for the Out of Your Head Virtual Speaker Software.

On Windows, copy the .lic file to your Windows "Downloads" folder, or you can copy it to the Out Of Your Head program install directory.
On Mac OS X, copy the .lic file to you OS X account's "Downloads" folder.
Then launch Out Of Your Head and after a minute or so, you should see the preset you purchased as being licensed as indicated by the little certificate icon to the right of the preset file.
I know that's a lot of steps, but it should not be too hard.
Thank you again for your purchase and if you have any questions or concerns please reach out to us at https://www.massdrop.com/support and we will get you taken care of ASAP.

I tried your demo and was very impressed with the A/B examples of your tuning software. I tried your trial product and that killed any interest I had until you improve your product. Your software is buggy, holy shit it's buggy. Clipping, left channel not loading, random volume jumps (like, almost blew out my left eardrum-type jumps, it has been 30 min and my left ear is still ringing from just testing the input with a simple volume raise/lower from the system tray), and distorted audio issues all requiring reboots to resolve, and then they show up again. Definitely not ready for release to the masses. Just my 2 cents as someone who designs/supports computer systems for a living as well as a hobby. Keep up the good work, it's getting there, just not quite viable yet.

Mr Darin, as the drop has ended, when can we receive the licence for activation?
LaughHi @Laugh, Thanks for participating in our drop.
The folks at Massdrop are responsible for distributing the license redemption codes for this drop. We send them the codes shortly after the drop ends. Then it's up to Massdrop to distribute them.
Maybe someone from Massdrop will chime in, or you can contact them.
Usually the codes appear in your Massdrop account "transactions" section. I am not sure if they are doing that or e-mailing participants. But check your Transactions, just in case.
Here's the instructions for redeeming your Out Of Your Head License Redemtiopn code, but the only difference is where it says, Then select the third item on that page, "Out Of Your Head License with Preset" it now should say, Then select the FOURTH item on that page, "Out Of Your Head License with Preset" https://www.massdrop.com/buy/out-of-your-head-speaker-software/talk/319682
In the meantime, please download and install the trial version. The trial version is the release version. The license redemption code will allow you to license the software and one preset of your choice and remove the 2 minute time limit on that preset.
You should try all the presets so you can decide which speaker preset you want to license before you receive the codes.
Thanks again, -Darin

Would it be compatible with 32bit Window OS?
hansdtgHi hansdtg, Unfortunately Out Of Your Head requires 64bit Windows. It also will not run properly on Windows devices that use ARM or other low power CPU's.

Im out, sorry, until the clipping problem stops, I will not buy it. It is good, but what is the point if you end up breaking the headphones which cost 3 times more... I have tried everything from bypassing to restarting my amp, my DAC, the software... but the clipping continues. Maybe next time if I find a way to stop the clipping problem.
akitonHi akiton, I realize that clipping can be an issue. On some systems, people complain that the output level of Out Of Your Head is too low. Yet on other systems, people end up with clipping. I guess that's Windows. The Mac version doesn't have clipping problems...
Please take a look at my two previous posts regarding clipping: https://www.massdrop.com/buy/out-of-your-head-speaker-software/talk/398555 Let me know if any of these things helps.

Darin_Fong_AudioHello Darin, nope, none of those things help. Turning the volume down still gives me some clipping. I think it has something to do with your software encoding... If I stop using OOYH, even at louder volumes, there is no clipping. Even when my ears bleed, I still hear no clipping for the same passage. Furthermore, clipping, as I have just found is not uniform. Some of the speakers set clip way more than others such as Quad and Focal utopia vs Sonus Faber. However, I love the Focal Utopia and the only reason I might think about buying it is the Focal. So, until it stops clipping, I will not engage in your product. Once or if you have found the issue with clipping, please advise me, I will make another listen. BTW, my setup, as of now is: PC--> Emotiva reference DAC --> yamaha CA610 (japanese model) --> ultrasones pro 750
