This sound field features stable reverberations that match a wide range
of
movie genres from serious dramas to
musicals and comedies. The reverberations are modest but offer an optimum 3D feeling, reproducing effects tones
and background music softly but cubically around clear words and center positioning
in
a way that does not fatigue
the listener even after long hours
of
viewing.
This program
is
provided for reproducing monaural video sources such as a classic movie
in
an atmosphere
of
a
good old movie theater. The program produces the optimum expansion and reverberation to the original audio to
create a comfortable space with a certain sound depth.
This program allows the listeners to enjoy stereo sport broadcasts and studio variety programs with enriched live
feeling.
In
sports broadcasts, the voices
of
the commentator and sportscaster are positioned clearly at the center
while the atmosphere
of
the stadium expands
in
an optimum space to offer the listeners with a feeling
of
presence
in the stadium.
This sound field has been suitable for action games such as car racing and FPS games. It uses the reflection data
that limits the effects range per channel in order to offer a powerful playing environment with a being-there feeling
by enhancing various effects tones while maintaining a clear sense
of
directions.
This sound field has been suitable for role-playing and adventure games.
It
combines the sound field effects for
movies and the sound field designs for "Action Game" to represent the depth and 3D feeling
of
the field during
play, while offering movie-like surround effects
in
the movie scenes
in
the game.

This sound field simulates a concert hall with approximately 2500 seats in Munich, using stylish wood for the
interior finishing
as
normal standards for European concert halls. Fine, beautiful reverberations spread richly,
creating a calming atmosphere. The listener's virtual seat
is
at the center left
of
the arena.
This
is
an approximately l700-seated, middle-sized concert hall with a shoebox shape that
is
traditional in Vienna.
Pillars and ornate carvings create extremely complex reflections from all around the audience, producing a very
full, rich sound.
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.
This program simulates a live house with a low ceiling and homey atmosphere. A realistic, live sound field
features powerful sound
as
if the listener is in a row in front
of
a small stage.
This is the sound field
of
a rock music live house in Los Angeles, with approximately 460 seats. The listener's
virtual seat is at the center left
of
the hall.
This is the sound field at stage front
in
The Bottom Line, that was 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.
This sound field offers
an
image
of
a concert hall for live performance
of
pop, rock and jazz music. The listener
can indulge oneself
in
a hot live space thanks to the presence sound field that emphasizes the vividness
of
vocals
and solo play and the beat
of
rhythm instruments, and to the surround sound field that reproduces the space
of
a
big live hall.
