Surround parameters w

DTS NEO:6 Mode:
Cinema:

This mode is optimum for playing movies. Decoding is
performed with emphasis on separation performance to
achieve the same atmosphere with 2-channel sources as with
6.1-channel sources.
This mode is effective for playing sources recorded in
conventional surround formats as well, because the in-phase
component is assigned mainly to the center channel (C) and the
reversed phase component to the surround (SL, SR and SB
channels).

Music:

This mode is suited mainly for playing music. The front channel
(FL and FR) signals bypass the decoder and are played directly
so there is no loss of sound quality, and the effect of the
surround signals output from the center (C) and surround (SL,
SR and SB) channels add a natural sense of expansion to the
sound field.

CENTER IMAGE (0.0 to 1.0: default 0.3):

The center image parameter for adjusting the expansion of the
center channel in the DTS NEO:6 MUSIC mode has been
added.
