INTRODUCTION
The MODIIC Cinema Stereo Processor is a full six
channel system featuring the latest technology in opti-
cal stereo soundtrack reproduction. This advanced
processor comes standard with many features, yet is
easy to operate.
The MODIIC has the ability to play spectral recording
encoded soundtracks with the built-in SR emulation
noise reduction. Digital soundtracks may be processed
in six channel mode which includes split surrounds
and subwoofer.
Mono soundtracks may be enhanced by using the
optional 3-D sound module which may be factory
installed or easily added in the future. The 3-D sound
module, a design conceived and patented by SRS
Labs, produces a realistic stereo effect from monaural
soundtracks. SMART Devices, Inc. is the only cinema
manufacturer licensed to use this amazing 3-D process
in its cinema processors.
Intelligent design, superb sound quality and the many
features push the MODIIC processor into a class all its
own.
To achieve optimum results from your new MODIIC
cinema processor, the theatre engineer installing the
system should be totally familiar with all features and
adjustments. Careful attention to detail and familiarity
with the installation instructions will allow you to
offer a system that has a sound quality second to none.

FEATURES
FADER CONTROL:
To begin, the MODIIC has one STEREO MASTER
FADER that controls the overall playback level for all
six channels. This master fader is used as the volume
control for all formats except music mode. The master
music level control is located behind the front panel
on the Format Card.
FORMAT SWITCHING:
The formats available on the MODIIC are Mono, 3-D
Mono, Stereo A, Film SR, Digital and Music. All for-
mats may be manually controlled by green pushbut-
tons on the front panel Format Card. The pushbuttons
are lighted with internal LED’s to indicate which for-
mat is selected. The indicator LED’s can be seen from
a distance so it is not necessary to be near the proces-
sor to verify the status. Format switching is also possi-
ble by connecting an automation or remote switch
contacts to the FORMAT SELECT terminals on the
back of the MODIIC.
SOLAR CELL INPUTS:
The MODIIC has stereo solar cell inputs with electron-
ic changeover for two projectors. Each pair of stereo
cell inputs is a quasi-balanced circuit which helps to
reduce any interference pickup on the solar cell leads.
DIGITAL INPUTS:
The MODIIC is fully compatible with popular digital
formats (i.e. DTS, Dolby Digital, etc.). The MODIIC
will easily process the stage, split surround and sub-
