DC-2 Digital Controller

PCM Effects and 3 PCM EffectsParametersand Parameters

The PCM Effects are compatible with two-channel input signals (analog or digital). These effects are included in all three versions of the DC-2.

Panorama extracts the natural ambience from recorded music and moves it			Panorama
outward from the speakers, producing greater width and depth of image
and a feeling of enhanced spaciousness. This mode adds no additional
sound but expands the existing stereo image. Panorama also works well
with Dolby Stereo movies, bringing the surround track outward into the
room.
The location of the front speakers and the listening position are crucial to
PanoramaÕs effectiveness and for best results your system and the DC-2
together should be set up and calibrated according to the procedure in
Chapter 2. The strength of the Panorama effect drops off as you move away
from the prime listening position, especially to the sides. Video systems
with the L/R main speakers spaced closely on either side of a TV screen will
produce a usable effect over a somewhat wider area than set-ups with a
large angle between the L/R main speakers.
