Dang. Have written all that, I should add that though the code works at higher orders, the player only supports formats up to third order (the game engine actually goes up to fourth right now). And rather fatally for Miguel's purposes, the decoder generator doesn't allow the coefficients to be exported.
It's well worth a listen though, honest! --Richard -----Original Message----- From: Richard Furse [mailto:rich...@muse440.com] Sent: 29 February 2012 22:25 To: 'Surround Sound discussion group' Subject: RE: [Sursound] Decoding coefficients for non symmetrical setups Hi there - at the risk of performing a plug: The irregular decoder problem has been a bit of an obsession of mine over the years. Folk may have played with my ancient and somewhat naïve (but not awful) "ambidec". (Not to be confused with Fons' excellent software of course!) I dread to think how many months of effort I've spent on this now. The current generation of this thread of thought works rather nicely IMHO - in fact that realisation was the driver to set up the company "Blue Ripple Sound" - and naming it that way - maybe one day I'll be able to make a living out of this sort of thing! If you've seen the website, you may be aware that there are two editions of the software - the "User" and "Advanced" editions - the main difference is the availability of a decoder generator that supports fairly arbitrary layouts at fairly arbitrary orders. We're very happy with it :-) Anyway, apologies for the plug, and being closed source (boo hiss) - I'll go lurk again now... --Richard -----Original Message----- From: sursound-boun...@music.vt.edu [mailto:sursound-boun...@music.vt.edu] On Behalf Of Miguel Negrao Sent: 29 February 2012 13:16 To: Surround Sound discussion group Subject: [Sursound] Decoding coefficients for non symmetrical setups Hi list, Ive been a bit disconnected from the ambisonics world. From my past reading on this list it is my understanding that there isnt an explicit formula for decoding coefficients for non-symmetrical setups. Are there currently available tools to generate decoding coefficients for non-symmetrical setups or an iterative algorithm that I could implement on my own ? best regards, Miguel Negrão _______________________________________________ Sursound mailing list Sursound@music.vt.edu https://mail.music.vt.edu/mailman/listinfo/sursound _______________________________________________ Sursound mailing list Sursound@music.vt.edu https://mail.music.vt.edu/mailman/listinfo/sursound
