Sound programs suitable for movies (MOVIE)

The following sound programs are optimized for viewing video sources, such as

movies, TV programs, and games.

Standard

This program creates a sound field that emphasizes the surround feeling

without disturbing the original acoustic positioning of multichannel audio,

such as Dolby Digital and DTS. 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.

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.

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.
