Re: [Sursound] A comparison of fifteen ambisonic microphones

Although this thread is based on engineering and the scientific method, I would like to point out that all the developers of ambisonic microphones are doing a great job offering tools in a sector that is difficult for the industry to follow and more difficult for the average consumer to grasp. Not

Re: [Sursound] Is it possible to mix ambisonic encoded information of different order?

Good question, From my experience, two things may happen. 1. The higher order will have lower amplitude but only to the extra channels of that order, that means that the spatial resolution of the reverb elemebt will be lower only, as the energy of the signal is given from the 1st channel as far a

Re: [Sursound] [Proposal] for HOA web-streaming-format

I totally agree with your comments Fons. I would like to add that I would defend Ambisonics against Object-Based formats, because the current implementation makes it very difficult to manage the dynamics of groups as a whole, making them a bad format for music. Also, again,m in their current imple

Re: [Sursound] FLAC and max number of channels

Hi everybody, So, FLAC cannot support more than eight channels, even in an Ogg container. Bosse, if you want to play back HOA through the web, wouldn't you use the Web Audio API or an ambisonics library based on the Web Audio API? Something like the JSAmbisonics? If that is the case, you are luc

Re: [Sursound] FLAC and max number of channels

Native FLAC can support up to 8 channels; you are right. To support more channels using FLAC, you should use Ogg FLAC, an OGG container containing FLAC-encoded material. If that helps you, you can find more here: https://xiph.org/flac/faq.html#general__native_vs_ogg Here: https://xiph.org/flac/fa
