Surround sound formats

Below is a brief description of the main
surround sound formats you’ll find on DVDs,
satellite, cable and terrestrial broadcasts, and
video cassettes.

Dolby

The Dolby technologies are explained below.
See www.dolby.com for more detailed
information.

Dolby Digital

Dolby Digital is a multichannel digital audio
coding system widely used in cinemas, and in
the home for DVD and digital broadcast
soundtracks. It can deliver up to six discrete
audio channels, comprising five full range
channels and a special LFE (low frequency
effects) channel used mainly for deep,
rumbling sound effects; hence the term “5.1-
channel” Dolby Digital.

In addition to the format features above, Dolby
Digital decoders offer downmixing for
compatibility with mono, stereo and Dolby Pro
Logic audio from a number of bit rates and
channels. Another feature, called Dialog
Normalization, attenuates programs based on the
average level of dialog in a program relative to its
peak level (also known as Dialnorm) in order to
achieve uniform playback level.

Dolby Pro Logic II and Dolby Surround

Using the innovative “steering logic” circuit,
this system extracts surround sound from
sources as follows:

Dolby Pro Logic – 4.1 channel sound
(mono surround) from any stereo source
