AC-3 Effects and Parameters

5.1 2-Channel

Lexicon

This Effect mixes Dolby Digital 5.1 information for two-channel play- back. These soundtracks can be recorded onto two-channel formats, or played back through left and right front speakers. The mix is designed to play back with full surround when decoded through Logic 7. In mixing a film with very heavy use of the Low Frequency Effects Channel, it may be desirable to lower LFE MIX LEVEL.
