Note:
Channel schemes are also expressed by terms such as
“5.1” or “3/2.1” Taking 5.1 as an example, the “5” refers to the
number of conventional speaker channels and the “.1” refers to a
subwoofer. In 3/2.1 the “3” refers to the number of front channels
employed (in this case, left, right and centre), the “2” refers to the
number of surround channels and the “.1” refers to a subwoofer.
Tables 9.5 and 9.6 refer to channel schemes in this manner.
