What is Dolby

?
Dolby
*
Pro Logic

is an
encode/decode process by
which four channels of
sound-track information
are encoded into two
channels for playback on
VCRs, laser disc players,
and some TV broadcasts,
and then decoded back
into four channels for
playback through five
loudspeakers. Remember
that a Dolby Pro Logic
system consists of three
channels of information
for front left, center, and
right speakers and one
channel of mono surround
information. The surround
channel is played back
through two speakers.
Dolby Pro Logic helps to
re-create all of the impact
and excitement of a movie
theater in your home.
