Agreed - some interesting ideas, but there seemed to have been a bit of a lack of research in some areas: no knowledge either of Harpex or the work that Richard Furse (hello Richard, sorry I had to dash off) has been doing. And the demo material was not exactly comprehensive: I must admit I'd hoped for something more than what was effectively manipulation of a point source around a speaker array from a single seat, given the claims for a wider sweet spot. One of the highlights of the evening, having finally emerged blinking from the maze of twisty little passages, all looking the same, was finding a female a cappella group taking advantage of the rather nice acoustics by having an impromptu rehearsal in the main entrance hall. That would have been a surround recording worth making.
Good to see some old friends, Tony Faulkner, Peter Mapp and Tony Waldron (ex-CADAC) and to make some new ones, so definitely worth going.
