DTS Effects and Parameters

Lexicon

 

DTS Logic 7

DTS Logic 7 combines all the features of DTS Digital with enhancements by

 

 

 

 

Lexicon and LucasFilm. This effect uses Logic 7 matrix technology to

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

enhance the steering between the side speakers and the rear speakers, so

 

 

 

 

sounds intended to come from behind the listener actually do come from

 

 

 

 

behind. This effect also includes the adaptive decorrelation and re-equal-

 

 

 

 

izer features of DTS THX.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

DTS Logic 7 provides the ultimate in film reproduction. It brings out all the

 

 

 

 

increased excitement and spaciousness a 7 channel speaker system can

 

 

 

 

produce.

DTS Film

The DTS Film effect decodes DTS-encoded soundtracks. It uses five discrete

 

 

 

 

full-range channels and a sixth dedicated, Low Frequency Effect (LFE)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

channel. In this effect, any rear speakers present are connected in parallel

 

 

 

 

with the side speakers. This is the basic DTS effect. It does not include the

 

 

 

 

enhancements by Lexicon or LucasFilm which are available with other AC-

 

 

 

 

3 effects in the DC-2.
