you know, for every email you guys write about this tired old topic, i
have _set up_ and _calibrated_ a higher order ambisonic system, and
believe me, that's way more exciting.
can you please stick your heads out the window eventually? it's 2012,
bandwidth is ridiculously cheap, storage even more so [1]. there is
absolutely no valid argument to be made against very high orders indeed
for production and archival.
That's not the point (well, at least, not mine). Out of the many choices
available, which type of HOA system have you set up? What decided you on
that choice rather than another? And which Higher Order would you
choose "as standard" out of the many possibilities available? The
closest to a consensus I have seen is third-order horizontal with second
or even first-order height.
For production and archival etc, should it be a free-for-all (= "order
creep"), or would it be constructive to settle on one specific order
(hybrid or otherwise) which everyone agrees to use as standard?
