Well yes, I stand partially corrected. I was thinking of Calrec (as was) Soundfield mics, the mic has to be plugged into the mic amp/controller which outputs B format. The Mic can't work without being plugged into it so there's no direct access to mic output. I know there are other mics available, and of course the likes of Nimbus use their own Haliday mic tree, which is native B format. Appaently the Tetramic is native A format though?
That said, I am in no way an expert on it and am sure there are many people here who are far more knowledgable than myself :)

My Meridian processor can decode B format.I have some spare time this weekend so I installed and configured Apex. Short learning curve but I can't get the search facility to work, I don't know if it's me that's not doing it right, but I've tried a few times, searches always come up blank. Any ideas?Ali.----- Original Message -----From: LokkermanSent: Sunday, June 24, 2018 12:01 AMSubject: Re: [SurroundSound] Re: new shares on the hubForgive me for being naive what is B format?--

I don't know if anyone is sharing any B format files, I've not found any on the Hub yet?
