Hi Fons,

I’m not sure if I understand your question correctly. I’ll do my best to be 
comprehensive so that my response covers what you are interested in:

For this type of array, the spatial aliasing frequency f_a is dependent on 
order N and radius R of the array in the exact same manner like with spherical 
microphone arrays (SMAs): N = (2 pi f_a / c) R

   N = 7
   R = 0.0875 m

So that

   f_a = 4.3 kHz

The lower end is limited by the radial filter gain that the user chooses. The 
radial filters are not the same like with SMAs, but they are very similar so 
that the limitations are the same. 

   0th and 1st order are available for all frequencies. 
   2nd order approx. above 200 Hz
   3rd order approx. above 500 Hz 
   etc.

I cannot comment on calibration requirements because we did calibrate the 
array… (Nor did we measure how well it was calibrated out-of-the-box.). I don’t 
actually think that there are any special requirements. As before, much of the 
physical limitations are qualitatively (and also quantitively) similar to SMAs. 

Best regards,
Jens
