Enda - ask Bruce - I've had this same conversation with him. I have to admit, as a cheap and cheerful quick fix, I often simply use the 1st order components (for example, if I'm too lazy to put in multiple decoders, I use a 3rd order decoder, and simply pipe in the 1st order to the first 4 inputs.) and it works not too bad. But I'm aware that it's a bodge job, and certainly not appropriate for precision work

Hi everyone, so it seems to be very common practice now to convert from 3rd order to 1st order by simply using the first 4 channels of the 3rd order stream. However, I have this very vague recollection of that not being quite right and that there are some differences between the WXYZ channels in different orders? But I cant seem to pinpoint the reference or source for that, so perhaps my memory is just wrong? Any one have any ideas on this? Could this be an issue with Furse-Malham, rather than Ambi-X, or am I just completely wrong about that? It's quite a relevant question as you often need to prepare both 1st and 3rd order mixes these days for 360 videos.
