- Circle mode is downmix compatible since it re interprets the back 2 to back 4. Should work well on content downmixed from 61 or 71.
- Square mode isn't downmix compatible since it upscales the corner 4 to the side. For specialist use only.
- Circle mode is summation downmix compatible since it re-interprets the back 2 to back 4. Circle+ also analyses the front channels for more accurate interpretation of the soundfield.
- Square mode isn't summation downmix compatible since it upscales the corner 4 to the side by extracting content panned midway.

- Bitutils V2 can be used to change the volume of a signal in small or large amounts using the volume & shift sliders respectively. Shift should be bitperfect. The bitdepth can also be reduced to reduce size when encoding to compressed lossless codecs. The channels slider goes up to 16 by you can type in any number.
- DifferenceMaker.txt: subtracts Sidechain (3+4) from Main (1+2). Useful for getting the difference after an effect.

## mcfx_convolver presets
After installing mcfx_convolver16 from the [mcfx](https://www.matthiaskronlachner.com/?p=1910) suite, and **[the zip of my repo](https://github.com/junh1024/Reaper-Surround/archive/master.zip)** , my convolver_presets folder goes in "C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\mcfx\", or "~/Library/mcfx/" on Mac OS X.
