When multi-channel signals (Dolby Digital and DTS) are input, they are downmixed to 2 channels and output from the front left and right speakers.
Drama
This sound field features stable reverberations that match a wide range of movie genres from serious dramas to
musicals and comedies. The reverberations are modest but offer an optimum 3D feeling, reproducing effects tones
and background music softly but cubically around clear words and center positioning in a way that does not fatigue
the listener even after long hours of viewing.
Mono Movie
This program is provided for reproducing monaural video sources such as a classic movie in an atmosphere of a
good old movie theater.
The program produces the optimum expansion and reverberation to the original audio to create a comfortable
space with a certain sound depth.
Sports
This program allows the listeners to enjoy stereo sport broadcasts and studio variety programs with enriched live
feeling. In sports broadcasts, the voices of the commentator and sportscaster are positioned clearly at the center
while the atmosphere of the stadium expands in an optimum space to offer the listeners with a feeling of presence
in the stadium.
Action Game
This sound field has been suitable for action games such as car racing and FPS games. It uses the reflection data
that limits the effects range per channel in order to offer a powerful playing environment with a being-there feeling
by enhancing various effects tones while maintaining a clear sense of directions.
Roleplaying Game
This sound field has been suitable for role-playing and adventure games. It combines the sound field effects for
movies and the sound field designs for “Action Game” to represent the depth and 3D feeling of the field during
play, while offering movie-like surround effects in the movie scenes in the game.

Descriptions
Hall in Munich
This sound field simulates a concert hall with approximately 2500 seats in Munich, using stylish wood for the
interior finishing as normal standards for European concert halls. Fine, beautiful reverberations spread richly,
creating a calming atmosphere. The listener’s virtual seat is at the center left of the arena.
Hall in Vienna
This is an approximately 1700-seated, middle-sized concert hall with a shoebox shape that is traditional in Vienna.
Pillars and ornate carvings create extremely complex reflections from all around the audience, producing a very
full, rich sound.
Chamber
This program creates a relatively wide space with a high ceiling like an audience hall in a palace. It offers pleasant
reverberations that are suitable for courtly music and chamber music.
Cellar Club
This program simulates a live house with a low ceiling and homey atmosphere. A realistic, live sound field
features powerful sound as if the listener is in a row in front of a small stage.
The Roxy Theatre
This is the sound field of a rock music live house in Los Angeles, with approximately 460 seats. The listener’s
virtual seat is at the center left of the hall.
The Bottom Line
This is the sound field at stage front in The Bottom Line, that was a famous New York jazz club once. The floor
can seat 300 people to the left and right in a sound field offering real and vibrant sound.
Music Video
This sound field offers an image of a concert hall for live performance of pop, rock and jazz music. The listener
can indulge oneself in a hot live space thanks to the presence sound field that emphasizes the vividness of vocals
and solo play and the beat of rhythm instruments, and to the surround sound field that reproduces the space of a
big live hall.
