playback in 5.1-channels with a sampling frequency of 96 kHz and 24
bit quantization on DVD-Video.
Dolby Pro Logic g
Dolby Pro Logic g is a matrix decoding technology developed by Dolby
Laboratories.
Regular music such as that on CDs is encoded into 5-channels to
achieve an excellent surround effect.
The surround channel signals are converted into stereo and full band
signals (with a frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz or greater)
to create a “three-dimensional” sound image offering a rich sense of
presence for all stereo sources.
Home THX Cinema Surround
THX is an exclusive set of standards and technologies established
by the world-renowned film production company, Lucasfilm Ltd. THX
grew from George Lucas’ personal desire to make your experience of
the film soundtrack, in both movie theaters and in your home theater,
as faithful as possible to what the director intended.
Movie soundtracks are mixed in special movie theaters called dubbing
stages and are designed to be played back in movie theaters with similar
equipment and conditions. The soundtrack created for movie theaters
is then transferred directly onto Laserdisc, VHS tape, DVD, etc., and is
not changed for playback in a small home theater environment.
THX engineers developed patented technologies to accurately
translate the sound from the movie theater environment into the
home, correcting the tonal and spatial errors that occur. On the AVC-
A1HD, when the Home THX Cinema mode is on, THX post-processing
is automatically added after the Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital or DTS
decoder:
Re-EQ™ (Re-Equalization)
The tonal balance of a film soundtrack will be excessively bright and
harsh when played back over audio equipment in the home because
film soundtracks are designed to be played back in large movie
theaters using very different professional equipment. Re-Equalization
restores the correct tonal balance for listening to a movie soundtrack
in a normal home environment.
Dolby Headphone
This is a three-dimensional sound technology developed jointly by
Dolby Laboratories and Lake Technology Ltd. of Australia for achieving
surround sound using regular headphones.
Previously, when using headphones all the sounds resonated inside
the head and it was uncomfortable to listen with headphones for long
periods of time. Dolby Headphone simulates speaker playback in a
room and places the sound at the front or the sides, outside the head,
to achieve a powerful sound like the sound of movie or home theaters.
This technology is mainly for multichannel audio/video equipment with
Dolby Digital or Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoding functions and
works with a high performance digital signal processing (DSP) chip.
Dolby Headphone is effective not only for multichannel sources but
also for stereo programs.
On the AVC-A1HD, it is possible to output signals encoded in the Dolby
Headphone mode from the recording output terminal and record them
on a separate recorder.
