CUSTOM

DTS Effects are compatible with DTS Digital Surround input signals.

Any DTS-capable software and/or source components should be

labeled with a logo, similar to the one on the MC-1 front panel.

DTS 2-Channel

This Effect mixes DTS Digital 5.1 information for two-channel playback.

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.
