Licenced Sound Retrieval System

The SRS algorithm has been licenced from SRS Labs, Inc. The following is from an SRS Labs press
release:
SRS, the Sound Retrieval System, is based on the human hearing system. It produces a fully immersive,
three-dimensional sound image from any audio source with two or more standard stereo speakers.
Whether the signal is mono, stereo, surround sound or encoded with any other audio enhancement
technology, SRS expands the material and creates a realistic, panoramic sound experience with no Òsweet
spotÓ or centered listening position. SRS is single-ended, requiring no encoding or decoding, and uses no
artiÞcial signal manipulation such as time delay or phase shift to produce its natural, true-to-life sound
image.
The four SRS parameters control the ambience of the image, and may have different optimal settings
depending on the amount of stereo content in the inputs. To match the optimal settings speciÞed by SRS
Labs, the bass and treble gains should be set to 0 dB. This algorithm will have no effect on mono signals.

When set to ÒInÓ the effect is active; when set to ÒOutÓ the effect is bypassed.
The overall gain or amplitude at the output of the effect. Out Gain is not applied to the
signal when the effect is bypassed.
The amount of Òcenter channelÓ can be varied with this control.
The width of the image is controlled with this parameter.
The amount of ambience added to the Bass frequencies in the signals. A setting of 0 dB
gives a best match to the optimizations of SRS Labs.
The amount of ambience added to the Treble frequencies in the signal. A setting of 0 dB
gives a best match to the optimizations of SRS Labs.
