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 command 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-Malham, nor the 4.8dB gain on XYZ for the normalised one).
