English BASIC OPERATION Brief overview of digital sound field programs The following list gives you a brief description 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 these sound fields were recorded at actual locations using sophisticated sound field measurement equipment. Note The channel level balance between the left and right rear effect speakers may vary depending on the sound field you are listening in. This is due to the fact that most of these sound field recreations are actual acoustic environments. Ⅵ Program No. 1 to 7: Hi-Fi DSP programs (for audio sources) q When the input signal is analog or PCM audio: ( DSP ) Speaker output: main, rear, front effect q When the input signal is encoded with the Dolby Digital (not in 2 channels): ( Speaker output: main, center, rear, front effect q When the input signal is encoded with the DTS: ( DSP ) Speaker output: main, center, rear, front effect DIGITAL DSP ) No. PROGRAM 1 CONCERT HALL 1 2 CONCERT HALL 2 3 CHURCH SUBPROGRAM (TYPE) Europe Hall A Europe Hall B U.S.A. Hall C Live Concert Freiburg Royaumont FEATURE This is a large fan-shaped concert hall in Munich which has approximately 2500 seats. Almost the whole interior is made of wood. There is relatively little reflection from the right and left walls, and sounds spread finely and beautifully. A classic shoe-box type concert hall with approximately 1700 seats. Pillars and ornate carvings create extremely complex reflections. Those reflections and the reflections from all directions of the hall produce a very full, rich sound. This is a large 2600-seat concert hall in the United States which features a fairly traditional European design. The interior is relatively simple, suggesting an American taste. Sound of the middle and high frequencies are richly and beautifully reproduced. 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. Recreates the acoustic environment of a big church with a high pointed dome and columns along the sides. This interior produces very long reverberations. This program features a sound field created by the refectory (dining hall) of the monastery, a beautiful medieval Gothic structure located in Royaumont on the outskirts of Paris. The dome-like spaces in the ceiling formed by the supporting pillars cause reverberations to echo and create a beautiful, lingering tone. 45
