Hi Michael,

What I had in mind are t-designs, which exist till a very high number of points 
and they have been used by various researchers in decoder design (and spherical 
acoustic processing in general). These are perfectly uniform for all practical 
purposes. And there exist other uniform arrangements on the sphere, mainly 
distinguished by the method that generates them, such as Fliege grids and 
Lebedev grids, all used in research for ambisonic-related research.

For irregular arrangements, I mentioned already the work of Zotter, Frank etc. 
from IEM Graz, all published. There is also the work of Epain and rest from 
Sydney university, with a decoder that has constant energy vector spread, also 
suitable for irregular setups. And there is also the work of Davide Scaini from 
Barcelona media and Pompeau Fabra, which targets irregular setups using 
numerical optimisation on the velocity and energy vectors, and who has also 
released python code to produce decoders.

Regards,
Archontis
