Linear Acoustic upMAX 2251 User Guide
The MAX 2251 ships with the following factory presets:
UP
• Reference Settings - Stock settings, a good place to start from scratch as all set-
tings are in a reasonable "detent" position. Start here if you are unsure.
• Music Cntr Spread - Straight two-channel to 5.1 channel upmixing, with the
center channel spread across the Left, Center, and Right outputs. This is very use-
ful for programming that either contains dialogue with music or is just mono di-
alogue as it nicely fills the front three channels, and feeds the surrounds when
appropriate.
• MUSIC FULLCENTER - Again, straight two-channel to 5.1 channel upmixing,
but with the Center channel kept discrete. Useful for film mixes and certain mu-
sic mixes. Two-channel mono programs will be reproduced from the Center
channel only.
• LIVE 4-CH to 5.1CH - Couples a straight two-channel to 5.1 channel upmix
with external surround information applied to the Ls/Rs Mix Inputs. Useful for
a sports mix where a two-channel main program and a 2-channel natural or am-
bience mix are available.
• LIVE 4-CH and ANNOUNCE - Again, couples a straight two-channel to 5.1
channel upmix with external surround information applied to the Ls/Rs Mix In-
puts, but also allows an announcer to be mixed into the Center channel via the
Center Mix Input.
• COMMERCIAL SHALLOW - Straight two-channel to 5.1 channel upmix with
the Surround audio positioned closer to the front channels. The Center channel
is spread by the standard 33%.
• COMMERCIAL DEEP - Straight two-channel to 5.1 channel upmix with the
Surround audio positioned all the way to the back and the Center channel spread
by the standard 33%
