Thanks for the feedback Florian, is that on Reaper? The 3rd-order version can be quite heavy. Can you check the CPU usage on the plugin window (if on Reaper? maybe elsewhere in another DAW)

For an overview of the hardware requirements, check: https://www.theoretica.us/bacch4mac/ I have the software (version 5.2) running on a laptop. I don't have a fancy USB audio module or the super-fancy BACCH-BM microphone; I use my cheap binaural microphone for the calibration, and it works quite well with any stereo recordings, even better with binaural recordings. My loudspeakers are quite ordinary and the result is already very impressive, so I suspect that it would sound amazing with the recommended hardware and audiophile loudspeakers.

Maybe you can move back from the speakers to get a narrower angle. The trick is not to involve your head shadow and get as better pinna angle. It works great with a little sound bar like the Soundmatters or Jambox. I have nothing to do with this except the inventor uses my RACE equations in his program and understands about keeping the speakers closer together. Some of the demo tracks are from me as well, I think.

The decoder works with first-, second-, and third-order material, and applies a parametric model of multiple sound sources and an ambient component. More available channels (higher-orders) allow additional sound source components to be analyzed. The decoder can sound sharper than a traditional linear ambisonic decoder, especially at first-, and second-order material. The user can manipulate the balance between the analyzed source and ambient signals, and control the percentage of ?parametric?-vs-?linear? decoding. Furthermore, as with the previous SPARTA suite of loudspeaker-based plugins released by the Acoustics Lab in Aalto University, the plugin allows definition of custom loudspeaker setups, and headphone monitoring using generic HRTFs, or user-provided personalized ones in the SOFA format. You can find the plugins, more info and download links here: http://research.spa.aalto.fi/projects/compass_vsts There is also a video demo in the web page demonstrating functionality over a range of first-order and third-order material.
