Aformat or bformat track routing

So it seems that aformat or bformat tracks can only be routed to HOA busses. Is there a way to monitor a bformat track in binaural, or stereo?

Apologies if this is really obvious…

Thanks, Ian

Hello Ian,

It’s not currently possible directly monitor A or B-format tracks.
You would have to send them to a HOA bus, and monitor the bus (i.e. monitor the decoded stream). Or make a HOA bus with stereo output (i.e. decoding HOA to stereo loudspeakers).

Best,
T.

OK, got it, thanks Thibaut!
