Dan, The original version of the SPS422 has the B-format signals available on the PCB but they are not buffered or available on an edge connector. I have modified an SPS422 in the way that you describe. If you'd like more info contact me off-list.

The preamp that comes with this model is an early version which doesn't have the b-format outputs built in. I'd like to know if it is possible to: 1: use a 12pin to XLR breakout and record the separate outputs directly from the mic using a motu traveller (which I already have), also, is it possible to power the mic from one of the travellers pres (phantom) or will I need to power the mic using a 5th XLR on the breakout? 2: would it be a relatively easy job to modify the soundfield preamp and fit the b-format outputs into the chassis?
