2.) Virtual stereo mike? I don't understand this
bit. Do we have one
in Linux? Or are you referring to a process i have to build up myself?
that's the vmic plugin i was talking about earlier. or the stereo
monitoring facility in tetraproc, but as i said, vmic is way more
convenient for your usecase.
since you are
dealing with artificial sources anyways, why stick to
first order? do your panning in higher order instead. the use of
resources is minimal (although it will create an insane amount of jack
ports, so use -P2048). it won't make any difference to your UHJ, since
it only ever sees WXY, but it would enable you to produce really crisp
n.1 or HOA decodes without any extra work.
I don't know enough about higher order yet, but i am proficient in
handling insane amounts of of ports, so that bit isn't overwhelming.
:)
so just create a 16ch master bus and use the third order panners. wiring
each channel is a PITA, but afterwards, you can just work as in 1st
order, there is no difference.
