Dolby ® Digital Processing - Turtle Beach Ear Force X42 User Manual

Dolby Digital Processing
®
The X42 uses Dolby Digital 5.1 surround processing technology – the industry-standard format for encoding multi-channel game audio.
Dolby Digital processing recreates 5.1 channel surround sound using the X42 headset so you can hear the sound all around you, as if
you were listening to a 5.1 speaker system.
Stereo Sound Field
Here's how the Dolby Digital mode operates:
· When the digital input signal is active, the Digital Input LED
turns on and the analog inputs are turned off.
· If the Surround LED is ON, surround sound processing
is activated. If the LED is OFF, surround sound processing is
deactivated and the signal will be heard as stereo.
· If a Dolby Digital encoded signal is detected by the digital input, the
front LED turns on and Dolby Digital processes the channels
to create surround sound in the headset. The surround sound must
be turned on to enable the Dolby Digital processing.
