NAME
       tetraproc - Tetrahedral Microphone Processor

DESCRIPTION
       TetraProc  is  a  microphone  processor,  which converts the A-format signals from a tetrahedral Ambisonic microphone into B-format signals
       ready for recording.

       TetraProc consists of two parts: the A/B converter and the metering and monitoring. Tetrafile only has the A/B  conversion  part  which	is
       otherwise identical.

       Both  TetraProc	and  TetraFile	will normally use the Furse-Malham form of B-format in which the W signal is attenuated by 3dB w.r.t.  the
       first order ones. Both can also use the 'normalised' and 'semi- normalised' forms if required. For safety, this can be changed on the  com-
       mand  line  only, and Tetraproc will show the current setting in its metering window. Note that the coefficients shown in the config window
       are independent of this - they are _always_ in the semi-normalised form (i.e. they do not include the 3dB attenuation on W  for	Furse-Mal-
       ham, nor the 4.8dB gain on XYZ for the normalised one).
