jconvolver 0.9.2 and zita-rev-0.2.1 for Mac OS X
As addition to the Ambisonics Decoder, Microphone Processor and LADSPA Plug-Ins I compiled and packed the convolution software jconvolver 0.9.2 as easy-to-use installer for Mac OS X >=10.6.
This Jack client is a very flexible real-time convolution engine, including configurations for applying Multichannel Ambisonics reverb.

You can find some additional Ambisonic reverb impulse responses here:

ambdec-0.5.1, tetraproc-0.8.2, AMB-plugins-0.8.1 for Mac OS X
I compiled the latest versions of Fons Adriaensens’ Ambisonics Decoder ambdec-0.5.1 (PDF manual) and his Microphone-Processor to convert TetraMic recordings to B-Format tetraproc-0.8.2 (PDF paper) for Mac OS X.
I packed them in easy-to-use installer packages which should run under Mac OS X >=10.6 (Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion):
Note about ambdec: The manual is outdated! The configuration window is gone. Use a Texteditor to edit .ambdec files!
ambdec-0.5.1-installer.pkg
tetraproc-0.8.2-installer.pkg
Make sure you have JackOSX (http://www.jackosx.com) and X11 (http://xquartz.macosforge.org) installed.
Troubleshooting: Sometimes the installer does not set the file permissions for graphic files correct, try to check if the folder /usr/local/share/ambdec is read/writeable for the user. You can start ambdec from Terminal and check for error messages (just type ambdec in Terminal and hit Return).
Additionally I compiled and packed the LADSPA Ambisonics Plug-In Set (AMB-plugins-0.8.1) for 32/64 bit on Mac 
OS X >= 10.6 to use within Ardour.

LAC 2013 – Ambisonics plug-in suite for production and performance usage
Today i held my presentation about the ambix Ambisonics audio plug-ins at the Linux Audio Conference in Graz. This plug-in suite features cross-plattform Ambisonics tools for converting between different channel sequences and normalization schemes, encoding up to 7th order, rotating Ambisonics signals and binaural decoding with various virtual loudspeaker configurations in different venues.
The software has to be polished and will be released hopefully soon.
In the meantime you may have a look at the
[ paper ] or [ slides ].
