Excellent onespirit5777. I too would like to know how music sounds through glass headphones. Nice mike too. I'm still experimenting with dielectrics with unexpected results. Well done.

I'm guessing that with glass you'd get a deeper bass.
Maybe I should post a dielectric work here as well.

hihosilver - He did the headphones, so I can't take credit for that just in case anyone thought I did it.

They are awesome!

Uh... How exactly do you set up a dialectric material?

I'm new to ART.

Make material, go to attributes> New attribute> call it 'class'> go to string and type 'dielectric' and hit ok. Now do the same: make another new attribute but this time call it 'IOR' then go to float and type the number of refraction you want: 1 is no refraction, 1.33 is glass, 2.5 is diamond and so on (best stick to 1.33 if you want a glass/plastic look).

All about attributes can be found at the v0.97 preview section of the site (link is over there <----)

I agree. I also like the glassy/ceramic reflectiveness of the diamond stand.
