Surround Effect Package

Introduction

Surround technology allows sounds to move more freely in the room and not just from left
to right. This kind of spatial signal is cleverly "hidden" within the stereo signal so that the
music can also be listened to on a stereo sound system.

General notes on the effects settings: The Surround Effects Package provides you with a
multitude of effects that will give your videos an even more spatial feel.

The surround sound field is defined in the effects as follows:
Width or horizontal position:
-100 = left to +100 = right
Depth or depth position:
-100 = front to +100 = back

Surround Eight
Generates a figure-of-eight movement.

Direction: Direction of rotation is clockwise / counter-clockwise
Speed: Speed of the movement - several laps may be completed at higher speeds

Surround Move
Moves a sound directly from "Start" to "Stop".

Start L-R: Horizontal starting position
Start B-F: Depth starting position
Stop L-R: Horizontal stop position
Stop B-F: Depth stop position

Surround Rotate
Moves a sound along a circular path from "Start" to "Stop".

Direction: Direction of rotation is clockwise / counter-clockwise
Start: Angle at the beginning of the movement
Stop: Angle at the end of the movement

Surround Echo
Adds echoes to the sound. The echoes move towards the rear loudspeakers and fade
out over time.

Intensity: How strong an influence the effect will have (100% means maximum, 0%

means no effect)

Decay: How quickly the echoes become quieter
Delay L: The time that elapses between two echoes for the left half of the room.
