well, panners in a3 are now plugins, of a fashion (they are a bit different from normal plugin APIs for a variety of reasons, primarily the fact that they never do in-place processing). its quite likely that at least the simplest of your ambi LADSPA plugins will show up in that fashion in the not too distant future, with a GUI very similar to the one in that screen shot.
nice :)
when i was in berlin attending "serious" concerts of electro-acoustic music, there seemed to be quite a range of opinion about ambisonics versus VBAP. although i tend to take your word for it on such matters, there were quite several smart people with years of experience in multi-speaker setups who had real issues with ambisonics and felt that VBAP was generally preferable. i don't want to make people choose.
actually, i didn't like what i heard of vbap so far, but it does work as advertised, even under very adverse conditions. unless we have franz zotter's partial sphere magic firmly in place for all workflows, *and* there are kick-ass, fool-proof automatic ambisonic decoder generators for even the most pathological speaker layouts, vbap sure has its place.
