1st order or second, horizontal only or full periphonic, how many speakers, what radius, how many punters at any one time, any flying problems?
p.s. - I've had decent results with a 2nd order 32 speaker rig on a dome, with crossovers in the B-format chain, using 8x subs in horizontal 1st order - floor standing - gets rid of a lot of the flying problems Dr Peter Lennox School of Technology University of Derby, UK tel: 01332 593155 e: p.len...@derby.ac.uk -----Original Message----- From: sursound-boun...@music.vt.edu [mailto:sursound-boun...@music.vt.edu] On Behalf Of Anthony Palomba Sent: 06 June 2012 18:33 To: Surround Sound discussion group Subject: [Sursound] Setting up my first ambisonic system Hey folks, I am looking to setup an ambisonic sounds system for use in music performance. I apologize if this subject has come up already, but I tried searching the email archive, the search feature does not work! The general idea is to have multiple audio tracks encoded in Max/MSP and then send that to a decoder which would then send the audio to speakers. Some questions: 1. what kind of decoder should I use: hardware or software? I assume is using a software decoder it will be running on another computer. 2. What would be a good scalable and portable strategy to get the audio to the speakers? Running a bunch of cables all over the place would be a nightmare. Are there wireless options?
