Ambisonics (not to be confused with ? ambiophonics) is a series of recording and replay techniques using multichannel mixing technology that can be used live or in the studio. By encoding and decoding sound information on a number of channels, a 2-dimensional ("planar", or horizontal-only) or 3-dimensional ("periphonic", or full-sphere) sound field can be presented. Ambisonics was invented by ? Michael Gerzon of the Mathematical Institute, Oxford, who – with Professor Peter Fellgett of the ? University of Reading, David Brown, John Wright and John Hayes of the now defunct IMF Electronics , and building on the work of other researchers – developed the theoretical and practical aspects of the system in the early 1970s.
