I've been editing some old B-Format field recordings, one of which was made in a very humid climate where there were issues with the mic (ST250); such that two channels dropped out completely for some the session.
For those sections what I'm left with is a W & X feed. Running these through a decoder obviously does not result in an ambisonic sound image, but I am getting a kind of "spatial" effect, the material sounds 'spatialised' (using an 8 speaker CF ring in 2D) and there does appear to be a clear sense of directionality (a dispersed left right or front back image). I'm just wondering what it happening, technically? And what are my options in terms of getting some kind of usable spatialisation. I was considering doing a hybrid mix whereby the WX is decoded to stereo (if this is possible) and then using it as a frontal image, with related B-Format material forming an ambisonic backdrop. Any ideas here would be really helpful. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
