Thanks for the detailed explanation. I can get a fairly convincing full circle of sound in the horizontal plane with just ordinary amplitude panning and the correct panning law - in fact I can get fairly convincing height too using some bespoke techniques I've developed. - I assume you mean the gaps between the speaker sin the panning are better filled with your system ? The proof is in the pudding of course - Can you recommend a good ambiophonics plugin I could test in the studio, all the best Gus
