Introduction
Trifield
Trifield uses a different processing technique to give a stable,
three-dimensional image, with the ability to adjust the width of
the image. Because of its precision we recommend this option
for solo, chamber, or vocal music.
Super Stereo
Super Stereo provides a form of Ambisonic decoding suitable
for material that is not specially encoded. We recommend this
option for multi-miked or multi-tracked music, such as rock
music.
Music Logic
Music Logic provides user-adjustable steering to give an
exciting sound with many types of music. We recommend this
option for studio-produced music, ie material not produced
using natural soundfield recording.
Special DSP presets
The digital surround processor also includes the following
special DSP presets, for specific applications:
Mono
The Mono preset is designed for reproducing mono materials
through a centre speaker, so that any high-frequency hiss or
clicks are centrally localised. It is intended for mono recordings,
and multi-language LaserDiscs and video soundtracks.
The Mono preset includes an Academy option, designed to
correct for a high-frequency balance in some old black and
white films, and a Party option, which plays the mono signal
through all loudspeakers.
Stereo and Direct
Stereo and Direct are provided for comparison with the other
DSP presets. Direct uses just the main left and right speakers
for traditional two-speaker stereo reproduction. Stereo, in
addition, uses any subwoofers in the layout to enhance the bass
or to protect small speakers.
