The point is that, since the direct method is equivalent to a decoding for the set of directions used to compute the SHT (which will be the set for which you have HRIR), there is nothing 'ideal' or special to it. It is just one specific case of the decoder + virtual speakers method in disguise, and one that is very probably using way too many speakers. Ciao, -- FA A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia. It's also a pipe-dream, founded on self-delusion, nerd hubris and hysterically inflated market opportunities.
