i'm preparing a paper for lac2009 about correct placement of spot mikes
in an ambisonic 3d mix, which might be interesting to you. but it does
not involve "correct" convolution reverb, which is somewhat more tricky.
if you want, i'll send you a preprint as soon as i've banged it into
shape - it's due by jan 29th...

by fons' definition, i have an "intuitive" grasp of ambisonics. it took
no black magic to attain and it is sufficient in practice to get a job
done, unless you want to push limits or need to debug a system, in which
case it's good to have some math wizards to ask :)
consider joining the sursound mailing list, if you want to dig deeper in
to ambisonics, but make sure you have an efficient mail filter :)
