I have never used Steinberg's Wavelab for anything. :) But it sounds like it has similar drawbacks to the otherwise excellent Samplitude, which I DO use.

Incidentally, one of the drawbacks of multichannel wavfiles for HOA is their large size for any reasonable length of musical composition. At 48kHz, a 9-channel 2nd order file takes c. 74MB for 1 minute of music. Alternatively, 1GB lasts about 13.5 minutes in 2nd order or about 30.4 mins in 1st order.
