David, I was curious about this, I've been experimenting with a nimbus-halliday setup and I've been turning the W channel down by a comparative -3db as per my rough understanding of the b spec. So to get a SN3d/ambix file I just keep all the channels at the same relative level? thanks

Zylia are going to be showing off there ambisonic conversion software at AES. Is anyone going who could report on it?.

Had my first play with these microphones. The Rode NT-SF1 is a gorgeous sounding mic very rich sounding out of the box. I know there were some misgivings on the forum about the Zylia but it's a good mic as well. It's very clean and has a flatter frequency response. One idiosyncraticy is that it has
