Sound Field Control (SFC)

The SFC function creates the sensation of a live performance.

About the SFC function

The acoustics of different performance environments are not the same and depend on the extent and contour of space through which sound waves move and on how sounds bounce off the stage, walls, floors and ceilings. At a live performance you hear music in three stages: direct sound, early reflec- tions, and late reflections, or reverberations.

Those factors are programed into the SFC circuitry to recreate the acoustics of various performance settings.
