What speaker configurations are most common for monitoring/listening to
FOA and HOA sources?


We're configuring the speaker decoder for OctoMic, and would appreciate
hearing what you'd like to see included as a preset.

Everyone working with AMB formats probably has the right decoder
for his/her studio setup. For decoding it doesn't matter what the
source of the AMB signal is. In other words, any software supporting
Octomic isn't required to provide its own decoder(s).

While recording on location headphone monitoring may be required.
All that takes is a first order stereo virtual mic pair (or
binaural rendering), and facilities to check the individual mic
signals.

OctoMic is a new one on me. Are any details available of what it does?
