Hi J?rn,
the patent from which originates 3D-EST is available here:
http://www.wipo.int/pctdb/en/wo.jsp?IA=EP2002007622&DISPLAY=STATUS
The answer to your first question is yes, you can use almost any
speaker layout,
but is always better to surround the audience and to realize two
height levels of speakers...
The system re-calculate all the positions and movements saved in the
control software
for the new setup of speakers, in real time, from one speaker to
64... obviously you can't
surround an audience with one or two speakers :-)
Do not hesitate to contact me again if you have more questions,
ciao
Luigi

Saturday, January 22, Auditorium Cesare Chiti Institute of Musical

Program of the afternoon session, open to the public:
- Arrige Aures, Soundscape composition by Fabio Iaci in 3D-EST 24.0
- Inner Voices, Soundscape composition by Mario D'andreta in 3D-
EST 24.0
- SIGNALI U GRADU (signals in the city), by Albert Mayr
- A Secret Life, by Brian Eno & David Byrne.
Comparison of three different mixes and following debate:
stereo version, 3D-EST 8.0 DTS HD Master Audio and 3D-EST 24.0.
is there some information on the web about 3D-EST 8.0 and 24.0?
i found some speaker layouts and marketing on the a&g website, but no
formal description. the http://3dest.isgreat.org/ site does give some
hints, but i'd like to know if it's a purely object-oriented
approach or
if you can also integrate natural recordings.
is the system agnostic to speaker layouts? how does it degrade if,
say,
a composer works for 24.0 and we have to play back in 5.0 or stereo?
