Using Digital Sound Field Processor (Dsp); Playing A Source With An Effect Of The Digital Sound Field Processor (Dsp) - Yamaha DSP-A2 Owner's Manual

BASIC OPERATION

Using digital sound field processor (DSP)

This unit incorporates a sophisticated, multi-program digital sound field processor. The processor allows you to electronically expand
and change the shape of the audio sound field from both audio and video sources, creating a theater-like experience in your
listening room. You can create an excellent audio sound field by selecting a suitable sound field program (this will, of course, depend
on what you will be listening to), and adding desired adjustments.
In addition, this unit incorporates a Dolby Digital decoder and a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder for multi-channel sound
reproduction of sources encoded with Dolby Surround, and a DTS decoder for multi-channel sound reproduction of sources encoded
with DTS. The operation of these decoders can be controlled by selecting a corresponding DSP program including a combined
operation of YAMAHA DSP and Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic Surround or DTS.
This unit has 12 programs for digital sound field processing; 7 from actual acoustic environments from around the world, and 5
programs for Audio/Video sources. In addition, each program has two subprograms. All programs contain various parameters that
can be adjusted to the listener's taste.
For details about digital sound field programs, refer to pages 45 to 49.
