The DP590 is a metadata authoring and emulation tool to create immersive broadcasts. It
enables a broadcast audio mixer to create an immersive environment and experience for fans
of live events, especially for sports. The use of dynamic objects in broadcast and streaming
transmissions heightens the viewer’s sense of involvement and intensifies the connection to
the game.
The unit receives PCM audio, creates presentations of dynamic objects, enables local
monitoring of the created experience, and then transmits metadata information about those
dynamic objects and presentations to the next link in the transmission chain, the Dolby
Broadcast Processor DP591, a Dolby Audio encoder.
The DP590 includes these features:
•
Support for stereo, 5.1, 5.1.2, and 5.1.4 speaker configurations
•
Ability to render a selected presentation and monitor mode to a MADI output
•
Ability to ingest 64 out of the 64 PCM channels over a MADI input, and to render the
created presentations (of up to 16 channels per presentation) to the MADI output
•
Ability to send metadata to other units in the system
•
A sound-mapping display for configuration of beds and dynamic objects, and assigning
them to presentations representing different audio environments
•
Ability to provide metering information on inputs and outputs
