This ardour user would love to use an UHJ encoder on his ambisonic
master bus (4ch), but finds it doesn't work as the number of available
ports gets reported at zero...

To get back to the OP, basically anything that requires pre-processing
in order to listen is a usecase. Bass management for your crappy 5.1,
matrixing of your M/S location recording that needs to stay M/S for
later production steps, hearing protection with a fast limiter, binaural
rendering of your stereo or 5.1 signals, the list goes on.

I know I'm gonna love this feature as soon as it's working, it's a very
smart thing to have!
