MUSIC
Hall in Munich
This program simulates a Munich concert hall with approximately 2,500 seats that uses
stylish wood for the interior finishing. 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 program simulates a 1700-seat, middle-sized concert hall with a shoebox shape that is
traditional in Vienna. Pillars and ornate carvings create extremely complex reverberations
from all around the audience, producing a very full, rich sound.
Hall in Amsterdam
The large, shoe box shaped hall seats about 2,200 around the circle stage. Reflections are
rich and pleasing while the sound travels freely.
Church in Freiburg
Located in the south of Germany, this grand, stone-built church has a pointed tower at 120
meters in height. Its long and narrow shape and the high ceiling enable the elongated
reverberation time and limited initial reflection time. Thus, the rich reverberation rather
than the sound itself reproduces the atmosphere of the church.
Church in Royaumont
This program features the sound field created by the refectory (dining hall) of a beautiful
medieval Gothic monastery located in Royaumont on the outskirts of Paris.
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.
Village Vanguard
The Jazz club is on 7th Avenue, New York. This small club with the low ceiling makes the
powerful reflections converge toward the stage located in the center.
Warehouse Loft
The warehouse resembles some lofts in Soho. Sound reflects off the concrete walls clearly
with a lot of energy.
Cellar Club
This program simulates an intimate concert venue with a low ceiling and homey
atmosphere. A realistic, live sound field delivers powerful sounds that make you feel as if
you are sitting in the front row in front of a small stage.
The Roxy Theatre
This program creates the sound field of a 460-seat rock music concert venue in Los Angeles.
The listener’s virtual seat is at the center left of the hall.
The Bottom Line
This program creates the sound field at stage front in The Bottom Line, 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.
MOVIE
Sports
This program allows listeners to enjoy the rich vividness of sport broadcasts and light
entertainment programs. In sports broadcasts, the commentators’ voices are positioned
clearly at the center, while the atmosphere inside the stadium is realistically conveyed by
the peripheral delivery of the sounds of the fans in a suitable space.
113
ENJOYING SOUND > Enjoying sound field effects
Action Game
This program is suitable for action games, such as car racing and fighting games. The reality
of, and emphasis on, various effects makes the player feel like they are right in the middle of
the action, allowing for greater concentration. Use this program in combination with
Compressed Music Enhancer for a more dynamic and strong sound field.
Roleplaying Game
This program is suitable for role-playing and adventure games. This program adds depth to
the sound field for natural and realistic reproduction of background music, special effects,
and dialogue from a wide variety of scenes. Use this program in combination with
Compressed Music Enhancer for a clearer and more spatial sound field.
Music Video
This program allows you to enjoy videos of pop, rock, and jazz concerts, as if you were there
yourself. Immerse yourself in the hot concert atmosphere thanks to the vividness of the
singers and solos on stage, a presence sound field that emphasizes the beat of rhythm
instruments, and a surround sound field that reproduces the space of a big live hall.
Recital/Opera
This program controls the amount of reverberations at an optimum level and emphasizes
the depth and clarity of human voices to offer the reverberations of an orchestra box in front
the listener at the same time as providing the acoustic positioning and feeling of presence
on the stage. The surround sound field is relatively moderate, but the data for concert hall
effects are used to represent the inherent beauty of music. The listener will not be fatigued
even after long hours of opera entertainment.
Standard
This program creates a sound field that emphasizes the surround feeling without disturbing
the original acoustic positioning of multichannel audio. Its design is based on the concept of
the ideal movie theater, in which the audience is surrounded by beautiful reverberations
from the left, right, and rear.
Spectacle
This program delivers the scale and grandeur of spectacular movie productions. It delivers
an expansive sound space to match the cinemascope wide-screen, and boasts a broad
dynamic range, providing everything from small delicate sounds to powerful loud booms.
Sci-Fi
This program clearly reproduces the finely elaborated sound design of the latest Sci-Fi and
SFX movies. You can enjoy a variety of cinematographically created virtual spaces
reproduced with clear separation between dialogue, sound effects, and background music.
Adventure
This program is ideal for reproducing the sound design of action and adventure movies
precisely. The sound field restrains reverberations, but puts emphasis on reproducing a
sensation of expansiveness on both sides, powerful space expanded widely to the left and
right. The restrained depth creates a clear and powerful space, while also maintaining the
articulation of the sounds and the separation of the channels.
Drama
This program features stable reverberations that match a wide range of movie genres, from
serious dramas to musicals and comedies. The reverberations are modest, but suitably
stereophonic. The sound effects and background music are reproduced with a gentle echo
that does not impinge on the articulation of the dialogue. You’ll never get tired listening for
long periods.
Mono Movie
This program reproduces monaural video sources, such as classic movies, in an atmosphere
of a good old movie theater. The program creates a pleasant space with depth, by adding
breadth and the appropriate reverberation to the original audio.
Enhanced
This program creates a sound field that emphasizes the dynamic sound transition of 3D
object audio. Its design is based on the concept of a movie theater with multi-top speakers,
in which the audience is overwhelmed by the natural and powerful sound effects.
STEREO
2ch Stereo
Use this program to mix down multichannel sources to 2 channels. When multichannel
signals are input, they are down mixed to 2 channels and output from the front speakers
(this program does not utilize CINEMA DSP).
114
ENJOYING SOUND > Enjoying sound field effects
All-Channel Stereo
Use this program to output sound from all speakers. When you play back multichannel
