If that is right, you could simply send Sennheiser a stereo audio file and ask them to send you the 5.1 back. Good marketing for them. Saves you going to IBC. Win-win. Though, if a black box can manufaczure 'acceptable 5.1' out of stereo streams (and I'm not saying it can't) it doesn't seem to say much for: -5.1 and/or -'acceptable' or am I too tired ? Michael There is a matrix somewhere (IIRC) for 5.1 -->-- FOA. So sell your TetraMicas fast ... while there's still a market ... !!!! _______________________________________________ Sursound mailing list [email protected] https://mail.music.vt.edu/mailman/listinfo/sursound
