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).
