Gravity Data Feed for the ambiX encoder
The open-source Ambisonic encoder with OSC input, and what a profile needs.
This guide explains how Spatial9 Gravity Data Feed relates to the ambiX encoder, the open-source Ambisonic plugin by Matthias Kronlachner. Status: documented route, no profile yet. The encoder can receive OSC, set up in its settings, but Gravity Data Feed has no ambiX profile.
At a glance
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Status | Documented route; no Gravity Profile |
| Control route | OSC input of the encoder, or host automation |
| Formats | Check the ambiX download page for your platform and host |
| Cost | Free and open source |
Planned route
- Enable OSC in the encoder settings and note the port and message format it shows.
- Convert Gravity Data Feed degrees to the encoder's azimuth and elevation range.
- Send positions from an adapter, or write host automation.
- Run a fixture test and publish a profile with its status.
What you can do today
Request plans in the playground or over the API and apply the positions by hand. For a free encoder that already has a profile, use IEM StereoEncoder.
FAQ
Why is there no profile yet?
Nobody has confirmed the encoder's OSC addresses and direction in a real session. A profile is only published after that test.
Does ambiX handle distance?
The encoder works with directions. Gravity Data Feed returns distance changes as unsupported actions for direction-only targets.
