Given how difficult it seems to be for billions of people to set up a 5.1 system, surely there must be a market? Possibly not exactly what you are looking for, but Genelec has software for their DSP-speakers:

The point of that paper (as I read it, anyway) was not whether the technologies may or may not be available in 2020, but that they would be established and embedded such they they are almost routine, barely noticeable. In the way, for example, that taking a picture using your mobile phone is

Thanks for your reply Jörn. You´ll have to excuse my basic english sentences, as it´s not my primary language. A-format panning as you call it has nothing to do with ambisonics per se, and the term frankly doesn't make much sense. the module you mention is a simple amplitude panner. so

If you have any kind of calibration involved, rotating before running the A to B process makes that calibration meaningless. In fact, I'd say that one of the main reasons B-format exists is precisely that it makes processing like rotations a reasonable and general thing to do. David

Mathematically, _if_ you have a perfect A-format signal set (from some theoretical tetrahedral mic) then it can be panned. For the _simple_ case of a yaw of X degrees, then A' = ( A(1+cosX) + B(-sinX) + C(sinX) + D(1-cosX) ) /2 B' = ... etc. _I_think_ (this was very quick on the back of
