Sound field description
Pro Logic II is a further
development of Dolby Pro Logic
and was developed especially
for the surround-sound
playback of pure stereo
sources, alongside the other
well-known decoding of Pro
Logic sound material (mainly
films).
With Pro Logic II, this part
handles the Music sound field,
with the freely definable
parameters Center Width,
Dimension and Panorama.
Through this, you get a realistic,
enveloping sound, which you
would expect from 1 5.1
Channel System. It greatly
enriches the usual stereo sound
that you get from the Dolby
Digital multi-channel system.
Surround
With this setting, the 5.1
Decoder always adapts itself to
the current audio format of the
selected source. This setting is
recommended for use with Pro
Logic quality television films,
which are being shown in your
living room with the original
studio mix.
When you play a DVD, whether
using the M51's internal drive or
an external device over DIGITAL
IN, the 5.1 audio format that the
DVD requires is automatically
selected. These are:
Dolby Digital, DTS, MPEG
In this case, all other surround
sound programmes are blocked.
Movie
The Movie mode has been
optimised for use with films or
programmes with a sound track
in Dolby Surround. It is also
suitable for video games. Movie
mode has all the important
properties of Pro Logic, while
the Stereo Surround outputs,
which cover the whole
frequency range, give you a
sound experience that much
more closely resembles the
quality of Dolby Digital.
