PAM1-3G8
Version 7
Discrete PCM 5.1
The non-Dolby monitoring menu also includes an
ALL
option. By selecting
ALL
the
operator can select the group of 6 audios from 2 groups which corresponds to the 5.1
audio signal. Once a 5.1 group has been defined, the 5.1 audio stems are routed to the
external speaker outputs in the correct
SMPTE
order (L,R,C,Lfe,Ls,Rs). Monitoring
selection options now function similarly to those within the Dolby Menu and include an
ITU775
Downmix
option similar to the
LtRt
mode.
By pressing
ALL
for a second time (illustrated below), the yellow
HEAR
box shifts to
highlight an alternative group of 6 audio stems. This function ensures that an embedded
discrete
5.1
signal can be monitored regardless of the location of the 5.1 stems. The user
can store different settings for monitoring discrete 5.1 audio in their
User Presets.
The
Downmix
listening mode is also useful when using the internal loudspeakers to
monitor discrete 5.1 audio channels.
