2-7. DESCRIPTIONS OF THE SOUND FIELD PROGRAMS

The following list gives brief descriptions of the sound fields produced by each of the DSP programs. Keep in mind that most of these are

precise digital recreations of actual acoustic environments. The data for them was recorded at the locations described using sophisticated sound
field measurement equipment.
* The channel level balance between the left rear effect speaker and the right rear effect speaker may vary depending on the sound

field you are listening to. This is due to the fact that most of these sound field recreations are actual acoustic environments.

1. CONCERT HALL:

A large round concert hall with a rich surround effect.
Pronounced reflections from all directions emphasize the
extension of sounds. You will experience the sound field with a
great deal of presence sitting at about the center position near
the stage.
This sound field is also effective for karaoke. This is because
you feel as if you are standing on a real stage.

2. CHURCH:

A church in Tokyo shaped like a cross. There is the altar at the
upper side of the “cross”, and a pipe organ at the opposite side
(the lower side of the cross). It is a very unique shape with
walls all leaning inside, and pillars standing by the side of walls
only. The sound field has moderate reverberations of which
time is 2.5 seconds.

3. JAZZ CLUB:

A jazz club in New York. It is in a basement and has a relatively
spacious floor area. The reflection pattern is similar to that of a
small hall.

4. ROCK CONCERT:

The ideal program for lively, dynamic rock music. The data for
this program was recorded at LA’s “hottest” rock club.
