A quick question.
For a medium orchestra template driven by Lsampler, with 60 outs (30
stereo pairs), will i need multiple instances of Ambdec? (As a coarse
experiment, 10)
Or am i approaching this from the wrong direction?
probably.
in an ambisonic listening system, ambdec's job is to *render* the
b-format signal as appropriate for your speaker layout.
hence, there will only be a single ambdec instance and configuration for
any given speaker layout.
i'm not sure i understand what you do with your 60 stereo pairs, but you
will probably want to mix them into a b-format master bus, using an
ambisonic stereo panner. listen closely for comb filtering, though, if
you ever end up putting the two signals of a stereo pair very close
together. coincident stereo works best here.
