Duane Records ® is the recording arm of Cooper Bauck Transaural Inc. and is named for the late audio savant and theoretical physicist, Dr. Duane H. Cooper.

Duane Records ® makes Transaural ® Stereo recordings. These recordings, using technology described in eight United States patents and numerous academic papers, are truly the most accurate renderings of actual acoustical events that have ever been made. After achieving considerable success in a closely related technology, to rave reviews, we are returning to our roots, to make the finest music recordings possible. Spatially, these recordings are like nothing that you have heard before, with full-sphere ambience and primary sounds appearing from anywhere, not just from the space between the two loudspeakers. With eyes closed it is impossible to determine the location of the loudspeakers. Musicians, jaded record producers, friends and neighbors, upon hearing a Transaural ® Stereo demonstration, all have the same problem: picking their jaw off the ground.

While one of our recordings (not released) was made in a recording studio, we greatly prefer more natural environments. This is simply because Transaural ® Stereo not only accurately reproduces the primary musical voices and instruments but also the sounds reflected from the enclosing environment. Therefore we greatly prefer clubs, concert halls, high school auditoria, and other typical "live" venues. It is important to know that this does NOT preclude multitracking with personal monitors.

Our philosophy, if that isn't too big a word, at Duane Records ® is this. We will record and release any musical genre so long as it is competently written and performed. We will apply our recording and engineering know-how to make the best recordings that you have heard. And in keeping with the goal of the fullest fidelity that is possible, we will apply no dynamic range compression or limiters or any other signal mangling device to our pristine signals. If you really like always-the-same-loudness recordings then stick with commercial pop recordings and FM radio, and bon voyage.

We will cater to the small production and hope that it turns big. We know that the artist and the music are the true value of any project, not the technology. And we truly want to be as financially generous with the artist as possible.
