I have done this--smbisonic decoded to 2 hexagons one above the other. I have also add a stereo mix into the decode. It is known as B+ ThomasChen In a message dated 7/3/2013 7:34:00 A.M. Pacific Daylight Time, m...@moritzfehr.de writes: hi everyone, thank you very much for your

late reflections and some time consideration. This would be added to direct and early reflections which can be panned to pairs of speakers or other means of localization. While not WFS, I think that it will be very satisfactory. ThomasChen In a message dated 7/7/2012 7:16:12 P.M

I have been to the Audium several years ago. It is a fascinating audio experience. It is not a coherent B format replay but rather a creative experience. I would recommend that you listen to this. ThomasChen In a message dated 4/19/2012 4:41:22 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time, er

I have tried a 10 decode with 5.1 type and hight directly above, also 12 decode with hexagonal arrangement with one above the other and 16 decode with octagonal arrangement again one above the other. I prefer the 16 and find that the integration of the speakers is more complete. ThomasChen

B format. The early time of arrival from the stereo front helps in both richness and localization. ThomasChen -Original Message- From: Anthony Palomba To: Surround Sound discussion group Sent: Thu, May 5, 2011 12:41 pm Subject: Re: [Sursound] Ambisonic Speakers what type to buy for 8

I use two octagons with one above the other. The decoding is much simpler for Z with the angles the same. My decoder is based on the angle from zero in front. ThomasChen -Original Message- From: Pedro Lopes To: Surround Sound discussion group Sent: Thu, May 5, 2011 10:46 am

I routinely use ProTools to mix B+ . All the decode is done in a separate computer that takes l/r and B format and will decode to 10, 12 or 16 positions. If you do not use Z is will do horizontal only ambisonics. ThomasChen -Original Message- From: Dave Hunt To: sursound

routinely use is that the spot mics are 10 to 30 msec or feet earlier in time than the Soundfield Mic. This uses early time of arrival to help localize your sound. A Soundfield 350 is more compact and will also give lline outputs. This sounds like an interesting project! ThomasChen B
