Folks, As i'm still learning about Ambisonics (mostly trying to wrap my fuzzy head around the math), there's something i don't understand.
If the 4 channels of a b-format mic give you all you need for the mathematical computations for 3-D space, why do we have Ambisonic mics with more than 4 channels and orders with 8, 16 and more channels? What does having a 4 channel (w, x, y and z) mic restrict you? (i apologize if this is a duplicate. I sent the first copy from the wrong address) -- Bearcat M.
