• 6Hexaphonic: This conguration delivers six-channel surround sound where the six chan-
nels are symmetrically arranged in a circle.
• 7Cinema: This conguration delivers seven-channel surround sound as it can often be
heard in lms. Well-known surround sound systems of this type include SDDS™ and
IMAX™. This conguration combines the 5 Music congurations with two additional front
center channels (center left, center right).
• 7Music: This conguration delivers seven-channel surround sound. It is comparable with
the 6 Music conguration, but the surround center channel is divided between the two
rear channels “surround center left” and “surround center right”.
• 7Heptaphonic: This conguration delivers seven-channel surround sound, where the
seven channels are symmetrically arranged in a circle.

channels are symmetrically arranged in a circle.
For any of these congurations, you can then set the assignment of each channel to the
available audio outputs of the stand-alone version. The audio outputs that you congured in
the Audio and MIDI Settings dialog are at your disposal in the various Channel menus sit-
ting in the panoramic eld (the position and number of these menus vary with the selected
conguration, see above).
Low Frequency Effect Channel
For all congurations but the last 8 Octophonic, you can activate an additional LFE (Low
