preamplifier works on
un-encoded
source
material
The lmage steering process works
on
both

encoded audio
source
material.
Unlike Dlgital Soundfield Processing, image
steering
logic does
not
add
anything artificial
to the
music.
The
CSP-1
simply
extracts
spatial
information
out
of
standard
stereo recordings and recreates
a realistic
surround
sound
field.
t
Panorama
control
The CSP-1
allows the
user
to adjust
the
width of the sound-
stage
by
using the fader control on the users head
unit.

of
4
way
fader)
Bass

as
I8
dB
of bass
signal boost.
Noise Sequencer

a
noise sequencer which
generates
a
