Surround parameters q
Pro Logic II Mode:
• The Cinema mode is for use with stereo television shows and all programs encoded Dolby Surround.
• The Music mode is recommended as the standard mode for autosound music systems (no video), and is optional for A/V systems.
• The Pro Logic mode offers the same robust surround processing as original Pro Logic in case the source contents is not of optimum quality.
Select one of the modes (“cinema”, “music” or “Pro Logic”).
Panorama Control:
This mode extends the front stereo image to include the surround speakers for an exciting “wraparound” effect with side wall imaging.
Select “OFF” or “ON”.
Dimension Control:
This control gradually adjust the soundfield either towards the front or towards the rear.
The control can be set in 7 steps from 0 to 6.
Center Width Control:
This control adjust the center image so it may be heard only from the center speaker; only from the left/right speakers as a phantom image;
or from all three front speakers to varying degrees.
The control can be set in 8 steps from 0 to 7.
DTS NEO:6 Mode:
• Cinema
This mode is optimum for playing movies. Decoding is performed with emphasis on separation performance to achieve the same
atmosphere with 2-channel sources as with 6.1-channel sources.
This mode is effective for playing sources recorded in conventional surround formats as well, because the in-phase component is assigned
mainly to the center channel (C) and the reversed phase component to the surround (SL, SR and SB channels).
• Music
This mode is suited mainly for playing music. The front channel (FL and FR) signals bypass the decoder and are played directly so there is
no loss of sound quality, and the effect of the surround signals output from the center (C) and surround (SL, SR and SB) channels add a
natural sense of expansion to the sound field.
CENTER IMAGE (0.0 to 0.5: default 0.2):
The center image parameter for adjusting the expansion of the center channel in the DTS NEO:6 MUSIC mode has been added.
