USING SOUND FIELD PROCESSOR

The Sound Field Processor built into this unit presents you with the ambience of an actual concert hall etc. by adding effects as sonic reflections or reberverations that create the sound environment of a hall etc. This unit provides preset sound field programs shown below. You can enjoy an excellent audio sound field by selecting one of them, and adding desired adjustments.

This unit incorporates a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder for multi-channel sound reproduction of Dolby Surround encoded video sources. The operation of the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder can be controlled by selecting a corresponding sound field program.

PROGRAMFEATURE

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This program is used for playback of sources encoded with Dolby Surround.

 

 

 

PRO LOGIC

Sounds are reproduced as movie creaters designed by using five speakers. You can experience the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

dramatic realism and impact of a movie theater.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This program is effective not only for playback of sources encoded with Dolby Surround, but also for

 

 

 

 

sources not encoded with Dolby Surround or TV programs with 2-channel stereo sound. With this

 

 

 

3 STEREO

program, 2-channel stereo sound is converted into 3-channels (left front, center and right front), so the

 

 

 

dialogs are emphasized on the center position by the use of the center speaker. As no sound is output

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

from the rear speakers, this program is also effective in a simple Audio/Video system without rear

 

 

 

 

speakers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

HALL

In this program, the center will appear to be deep behind the front speakers, creating an expansive

 

 

 

large hall ambience. Orchestra and opera music is suited for this sound field.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ARENA

This program simulates the sound environment of a big hall with long reverberation time and many

 

 

 

reflections of high frequencies.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

DISCO

This program recreates the acoustic environment of a lively disco in the heart of a very lively city. The

 

 

 

sound is dense and highly concentrated. It is also characterized by a high-energy, “immediate” sound.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

STADIUM

This program gives you long delays between direct sounds and effect sounds, and extraordinarily

 

 

spacious feel of a large stadium.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This program is designed specifically to enhance mono source programs. Compared to a strictly

 

MONO MOVIE

mono setting, the sound image created in this mode is wider and slightly forward of the speaker pair,

 

lending an immediacy to the overall sound. It is particularly effective when used with old mono

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

movies, news broadcasts and dialog.
