Citando Steven Boardman <boardroomout...@gmail.com>:
“Apparently it uses adaptive parametric processing, ala Harpex.
In fact one can use the plugin on b-format too. Which means with a little
jiggery pokery it is possible to upmix, in a Harpex style for free.
I haven’t used it like this, as i have the blue ripple Harpex upmixer. But
i have used it to beamform a hyper cardiod without rear lobe with great
success.”

They don’t mention this, in fact this seems to be a kind of Facebook
speculation...

So in my understanding you can’t simulate a high-resolution ambisonics
to 5.1 decoding (for example) with 5 virtual shotgun mikes. Because
the “shotgun capsule responses” won’t add up to a 5.1 microphone at
all... (The 5.1 mike capsule responses should be rather cardioid, and
a coincident stereophonic 5.1 microphone ain’t be good either.)
It is even less clear how a supposed new parametric ambisonics
decoding process should work, because such a thing is neither
explained nor even mentioned by Rode - and I don’t see any function to
test...
Do I miss anything? Of course it would be quite sensational if Rode
should have invented a new form of FOA upsampling AND would give this
away “for free” in some plugin. (AND then not promoting this
sensational feature...)
But I highly doubt it...
Best,
Stefan
P.S.: But in case I should be wrong, it would have been me to provoke
a reaction from Rode which would < unveil > a very hidden and
insignificant superresolution feature. 😎
