Playback of Ambisonics Audio

Nuendo allows you to decode Ambisonics audio for monitoring via headphones or 3D multi-channel speaker setups. For decoding, you can use VST AmbiDecoder or suited third-party decoder plug-ins.

The following applies:

  • In the Control Room Phones channel, you can use VST AmbiDecoder or suited third-party decoder plug-ins.

  • In the Control Room Main channel, VST AmbiDecoder is automatically used for decoding Ambisonics audio.

  • You can use third-party Ambisonics decoders as insert plug-ins in the Control Room Main channel.

  • VST AmbiDecoder allows you to send a head-locked signal into your monitor mix via side-chain.

Note

To monitor your Ambisonics project, an output bus in Ambisonics format must be set as Main Mix.
