The ULTIMATE Beamforming Algorithm: WE DID IT!

After a deep dive into polar patterns and beamforming in Ambisonics, I'm finally ready to reveal something I've been working on for the past 18 months: the Audio Brewers Beamforming Algorithm.

In this final video of the series, I walk you through a visual comparison between our custom-built beamforming algorithm and industry standards, across Ambisonic orders 2 through 7. From cardioid decoding to 90dB and even 100dB rejection range, you’ll see how our algorithm performs in terms of precision, directionality, and rear rejection.

Whether you're a spatial audio enthusiast, sound designer, or Ambisonics pro, this is your sneak peek into a tool we believe sets a new standard in Ambisonic beamforming.
