Hi Marc, the short answer is all of them. A more detailed answer follows: The Delius (DKP9008/9009) is stereo on side 1. The rest claims to be UHJ (on the sleeve notes). I can certainly say the Julian Lloyd Webber tracks are UHJ as I recall editing them with him, so I think the sleeve notes are correct. The HiFi Sound test disc has two UHJ tracks recorded with a MKII SFM. In addition to the Unicorn releases listed I engineered DKM6001, DKM6002 and the Peter Maxwell Davies 'Ave Maris Stella' KP8002 (see the Unicorn-Kanchana page on discogs). The latter was recorded 2ch UHJ on 1/2" tape @30ips ATR102; I had to take said machine to the cutting room as they did not have 1/2" tape machine, I think it was Townhouse or maybe Abbey Road. There is a second Ruggiero Ricci recording DKP9003 which is not on the discogs list. This is UHJ too. On the Unicorn-Kanchana list DKP9002 is UHJ (me) as are DKP9004, DKP9005 & DKP9016 (Bob Auger) > > I have the "North By Northwest" cd. so do I, Michael Gerzon once presented me a copy of it when he returned from a trip to NY. > > Detecting UHJ encoding is the subject of some previous discussions on > sursound, but I better ask the audio engineer. :-) Its fairly safe to say, if my name is on it then it is Ambisonic...... (subject to the efforts of the cutting engineer to the contrary :-) regards, Geoffrey _______________________________________________ Sursound mailing list Sursound@music.vt.edu https://mail.music.vt.edu/mailman/listinfo/sursound - unsubscribe here, edit account or options, view archives and so on.
