Automating Surround
This section of the dialog is described in the section on “Automation of twin-channel
Surround”.
Stereo and mono signal processing with twin-
channel Surround
Mono
The following applies to stereo signals: A mono total is formed from the signal that is
positioned as a single mono sound source in the panorama.
The following applies to mono signals: The signal is positioned as a single mono
sound source in the panorama.
X-Sym.
The following applies to stereo signals: The left-hand and right-hand channels are
aligned symmetrically on the x-axis. This enables a stereo signal to be panned very
easily from front L to Surround L.
The following applies to mono signals: In addition to the original mono source a
second (mono) mirror sound of this signal is positioned.
The mirror axis is the x-axis.
Y-Sym
The following applies to stereo signals: The left-hand and right-hand channels are
directed symmetrically on the y-axis. This enables a stereo signal to be panned very
easily from front L to R.
The following applies to mono signals: In addition to the original mono source a
second (mono) mirror sound source of this signal is positioned.
The mirror axis is the y-axis.
XY-Sym.
The following applies to stereo signals: The left-hand and right-hand channels are
aligned symmetrically to the x and the y-axes. This enables a stereo signal to be
panned very easily from to front L / Surround R.
The following applies to mono signals: In addition to the original mono source a
second (mono) mirror sound source of this signal is positioned. This is mirror-
symmetrical to the original course with regard to the x and y-axes.
