Hello Chris and everyone,

There is of course Harpex. Excuse me for plugging the plugin, I'm just answering questions here... It can convert from B-format to stereo, binaural, surround, 3D surround and more. It will be released in march, but I'll send you a copy of the RTAS beta version right away. It's been tested with PT 8 and 9 on Mac and Windows. Of course, in its VST version, it works equally well with Reaper, but I understand this is not an option for you. As for B-format panners, which is what you need to mix spot mics into the B-format signal, I don't think there are any with native RTAS or TDM support. However, you can try to wrap one of Daniel Courville's excellent VST plugins with FXpansion's VST to RTAS adapter.

Best,

Svein Berge

G'day guys,

Does anybody know weather it is possible to record and mix B format in Pro Tools 9? I have been looking around for a plugin, with not much luck. It appears SoundField have one, but I can;t find out if it is compatible with PT9 (only PT8HD or VST) I have just started teching at a venue with a pro tools rig, and while I despise it, I think I'm stuck with it for the time
being.

I am using a SoundField SPS422B system. I'm recording live classical music from solo instrumental, chamber (about 4-10 musicians) through to small orchestras (up to 100 musos) From what I can gather from the patch, the last technician used to take a stereo out from the SoundField processor, mix in any spot mics via a hardware mixer and record a 2 track audio mix to CD and Pro Tools. This looses so much of the value of the SoundField, and want to do better. While I don't have the gear to do surround at the moment, I would like to have the B format stuff sussed in stereo first so that I can upgrade
later in the year.

Basically what I need is:
A way to mix any additional spot mics or solo mics into the B format
universe
A way to mix the B format from the soundfield and spot mics into mono/stereo
(upgradeable to surround)
All using pro tools 9. :(

If Pro Tools isn't an option, what do you recommend that will work with a digi 002? (until I can upgrade and remove digidesign rubbish from my life
all together)

Thanks in advance.
