Single-band decoders specify a single +matrix that transforms all frequencies, while dual-band decoders specifies two +matrices where one transforms low frequency sounds and the other transforms +high frequency sounds. See docs/ambisonics.txt for more general information +about ambisonics. + Starting with OpenAL Soft 1.18, version 3 of the file format is supported as a means of specifying custom surround sound speaker layouts. These configuration files are also used to enable the high-quality ambisonic decoder. |
