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).
