Hello all,
Forwarding an edited message that I sent to the SuperCollider list on
the weekend:
Recently I've been working on a class/quark for GUI assisted authoring
of ambisonic sound fields. The class is called Mosca and I think it may
be of general interest. It uses Joseph Anderson's Ambisonic Toolkit
among other components and allows for quick/easy spatialisation of
sounds from a variety of sources (file, hardware-inputs, SC synths) as
well as various options for reverberation, recording of trajectories and
control data, A-format inserts for user defined filters and basic sync
with a DAW via MMC - among other features.
It has not been tested on Mac or Windows however, only on Linux, so I'd
like to invite people on the list to please try it out. (I believe there
will be file saving issues on Windows in relation to the Automation
quark - something I'll try and fix once I get my hands on a Windows
machine.)
The home page for the project is here: http://escuta.org/mosca
The Github page is here: https://github.com/escuta/mosca
It requires the Ambisonic Tool Kit (ATK) to be installed and the ATK
kernels. See http://www.ambisonictoolkit.net/download/supercollider/
It also requires the latest version of the Automation Quark and
additionally: Mathlib, CTK and XML (which should all install
automatically with Mosca).
Once installed, please run help on "Mosca" for detailed information and
source code examples.
You'll also need to set up a project directory with subdirectories
"auto" and "rir". See the zip file here http://escuta.org/mosca for an
example B-format RIR file (48kHz) and B-format recordings, some of which
are included with kind permission from John Leonard.
I hope it's of use to people on the list. Many thanks to Joseph Anderson
for his assistance and suggestions as well Neels Hofmeyr and to various
people on the list for answering my recent barrage of questions!
Please see also my B-format field recordings here:

and other ambisonic resources here:

Please let me know if you have any suggestions or discover any problems.
All the best,
Iain
