ULTRAFEX PRO EX3200
5.5 The surround processor of the ULTRAFEX PRO
Sound quality during signal transmission is given top priority today. The signal is processed with the help of
reverb devices, compressors, exciters, denoisers etc. to produce a compact, low-noise and transparent sound.
However, the fact that hearing impression depends largely upon the positioning of the instruments within the
stereo panorama is often enough neglected. Using the surround processor of the ULTRAFEX PRO, the
intensity of the stereo effect can be dramatically improved. The program material gains in liveliness, loudness
and transparency. As in a cinema with its special acoustics, the listener has the impression that the orchestral
instruments are placed all around him. The surround processor enlarges the stereo basis dependent on the
program material, without audibly colouring the sonic image.
The function of the surround processor is based on the derivation of a special signal, which is generated from
the difference of the left and right channel. This signal is then delayed program dependently and mixed with the
original signal. The difference between the two channels is the stereo substance whose ambient and spatial
information is improved by delaying the signal.
Due to the described function, the surround processor is principally useful only with stereo program material.

6.1 Basic applications
6.1.1 The ULTRAFEX PRO as In Line processor
The BEHRINGER ULTRAFEX PRO provides two methods of system configuration:
Fig. 6.1 shows the use of the BEHRINGER ULTRAFEX PRO in a series configuration. In most cases, the unit
will be used as an in-line effects device, by connecting it in series with other devices, or by inserting it into the
line inserts of a mixer.
