Introduction

Trifield

Trifield uses a different processing technique to give a stable, three-dimensional image, with the ability to adjust the width of the image. Because of its precision we recommend this option for solo, chamber, or vocal music.

Super Stereo

Super Stereo provides a form of Ambisonic decoding suitable for material that is not specially encoded. We recommend this option for multi-miked or multi-tracked music, such as rock music.

Music Logic

Music Logic provides user-adjustable steering to give an exciting sound with many types of music. We recommend this option for studio-produced music, ie material not produced using natural soundfield recording.

Special DSP presets

The digital surround processor also includes the following special DSP presets, for specific applications:

Mono and Academy

The Mono and Academy presets are designed for reproducing mono materials through a centre speaker, so that any high- frequency hiss or clicks are centrally localised.

Mono is designed for mono recordings, and multi-language LaserDiscs and video soundtracks.

Academy is designed for early black and white film soundtracks. It includes equalisation designed to correct for a high-frequency balance in some old black and white films.

Stereo and Direct

Stereo and Direct are provided for comparison with the other DSP presets. Direct uses just the main left and right speakers for traditional two-speaker stereo reproduction. Stereo, in addition, uses any subwoofers in the layout to enhance the bass or to protect small speakers.
