it depends on the size of the room and whether you want surrounding sound only in a plane or also in a sphere/half sphere. usually you want 8 speakers for a smooth circle around a listener. marius.

So I am working on sound for a permanent installation involving 6
speakers in a large circular room. Are 6 speakers enough to do
anything useful using ambisonics? Or am I better off using the
simpler vbap?I am just starting to understand the basics of ambisonics, thanks to
Florian's intro. I will be programmatically controlling the position
of the samples, since it will be synced up with a video. So I don't
think I really need the GUIs like cubemixer.Are there any simple, working demos of the IEM ambi stuff?
