Re: [Sursound] Ambisonic recordings and noise reduction - best practise?
Thanks for all the replies to my initial question. I have done some testing with all three approaches today. My conclusion so far is that running noise reduction on the B-format signal as two stereo pairs (WX and YZ) ends up distorting the sound field (spatial artefacts, less pronounced spatialisation). Doing it on the A-format signals sounds much better. I’ve not yet reached any conclusion on whether there are any differences between processing the original recorded A-format signals, or A-format signals decoded from B-format using ATK. But workflow-wise it seems faster to do this using the VST/AU plugins rather than the standalone application, with all the splitting and linking of audio files required in that process.

Re: [Sursound] Ambisonic recordings and noise reduction - best practise?
Trond, not sure if this will be of any help but I had contacted Izotope Support about best practices for denoising B-format last year. (A-format was not an option for us since our Soundfield ST450 MKII mic outputs B-format directly.) Here was their answer: "I spoke with our head DSP Engineer about what some best practices might be in order to avoid any phasing issues when processing B-format audio in RX. When De-noising your 4 mono audio tracks within RX 5 you have the option to use the Spectral De-noiser or the Dialogue De-noiser. The Spectral De-noiser won’t affect the phase of your audio so it should be safe to use. The Dialogue De-noiser, however, does use some non-linear equalization and compression/gating that may affect the phase in an undesirable way if processed heavily. That being the case I would recommend using the Spectral De-noiser to de-noise your B-format audio."
