Upmix Mode 

[Mono / Stereo / AUTO] 

 

Profile 

[1 Front Projection, 2 Emphasize Front, 3 Balanced, 4 Emphasize 
Surround, 5 Wrap Surround] 

 

 

1 Front Projection – Optimized for a stable surround image, 
independent of correlation of the input signal. Opens a stage-like 
presentation over the front speakers and uses the rear channels for 
ambience creation. 

 

 

2 Emphasize Front – Based on setting 1 with a less strict front 
projection.  

 

 

3 Balanced – A balanced distribution of the signal between the front 
and rear channels, without overemphasizing the rear channels. 

 

 

4 Emphasize Surround – The distribution between the front and rear 
channels is highly dependent on the correlation of the input signal. 
Highly uncorrelated signals may create emphasized surround 
channels. 

 

 

5 Wrap Surround – Even distribution of the signal between all 
channels, to create a feeling of being ‘wrapped in sound’ to create 
spectacular effects.  

 

Processing Time (ms)  [3 … 100] 

 

The processing time has great influence on the quality of the upmix 
process but of course alters the latency of the audio signal. It is 
highly recommended to allow as much processing time as possible. 
E.g. one can e.g. increase the processing time instead of adding 
audio delay to compensate for a delayed video line. Depending on 
the system latency requirements (ingest vs. live broadcast) you may 
change the processing time accordingly. 

. 

Center Divergence 

[0.0 … 1.0] 

 

The upmix process assembles a center signal from the input stereo. 
It may either be fed to the center channel only (0.0) or spread 
between L/R (1.0). The effect will be a wider presentation of center 
signals in a surround sound image. Please note that the signal does 
not completely disappear from one source (L/R or C), depending on 
the selected profile. 

 

Surround Gain (dB) 

[-24.0 … 0.0] 

 

Sets the level of Ls/Rs channels. 

 

Surround Balance 

[0.00 … 1.00] 

Stereo 

defines the amount of direct sound mixed into the surround 
channels. 

 

0.0 provides pure ambient sound while 0.1 to 1.0 will increase the 
amount of direct sound. Works only if upmix mode is set to stereo 
or switched to stereo in auto mode.
