Using the sound field control
TheSFC function creates the sensation of a
liveperformance.
!Theacoustics of different performance en-
vironmentsare not the same and depend
onthe extent and contour of space through
whichsound waves move and on how
soundsbounce off the stage, walls, floors
andceilings. At a live per formance you
hearmusic in three stages: direct sound,
earlyreflections, and late reflections, or re-
verberations.Those factors are programed
intothe SFC circuitry to recreate the acous-
ticsof various performance settings.
