Page 4: Unwrap Background
UNWRAP BACKGROUND From kitchen to cinema Today's music has to be purposed for a number of different reproduction situations, from a mono kitchen radio over a CD stereo system to a full size cinema. Because no true down-mix or up-convert standard exist, control over this important process can only be achieved by handling it at the mastering or mix studio;... -
Page 5: Introduction
Using the additive approach, UnWrap preserves the Left and Right channels bit transparent all the way down to the LSB of a 24 bit input. If the original stereo-mix is later requested, it can be obtained using only these two channels. If subsequent down-mix capability using all the channels is essential, this option is available too. -
Page 6: Main Page
Bit Transparency When 0% L/R processing is selected, input trims and output levels are at 0dB, the inputs are bit transparently cloned to the L Front and R Front outputs. MAIN PAGE Input trims are provided to carefully match the L/R balance. If working from analog tape, adjust balance with a 1kHz calibration tone. -

Now adjust the Decorrelation Tone and EQ parameters. Tuning of the surround parameters is an iterative process and should include the delay settings as well. D-MIX PAGE The downmix feature allows the user to check for stereo compatibility. Four fields are used to tell how much audio to extract from Left/Right, Center, LFE and sLeft/sRight surround channels. -

Page 15: Output Levels
The total delay on an output channel is the normal ms delay setting, PLUS the sample delay setting. The actual time a delay set in samples varies depending on running sample rate. E.g. if you are running 48kHz, a 48 samples delay equals 1ms, and at 96kHz it equals 0.5ms. -

D-MIX DOWNMIX LEVELS The downmix feature allows you to check the UnWrap settings for stereo compatibility. Downmix levels should match the settings for the external downmix device. Presets are per default set to the following values that match the ATSC A/52 standard: From L/R : -3.0 dB From C... -
Page 17: Preset Management
Preset Management TC's comprehensive file based preset architecture makes archiving presets a simple process. This allows you to organize your presets the way you find most comfortable for your workflow, and to exchange presets with other users, no matter the platform or application. -
Page 18: Default Preset Locations
DEFAULT PRESET LOCATIONS The following locations will describe where you can find the UnWrap presets. The pre- sets are stored in a folder that is unique to each plug-in: The plug-in’s own preset handling is storing the presets in the following locations: Mac OS Factory Presets: /Library/Application Support/TC Electronic/UnWrap/Presets/... - Page 19 The generated SysEx/MIDI preset file needs to be placed in the default UNWRAP Preset folder (at the root level; sub-folders are not considered). The file needs to have either the extension ".syx" (for example: MyPresets.syx) or .mid for a MIDI file. NOTE: In case you are running the Icon Editor on the same computer as the UNWRAP plug-in, the UNWRAP will automatically search for preset files in the default locations for and System 6000 files.

Page 20: Compare Settings With A/B Mem Function
COMPARE SETTINGS WITH A/B MEM FUNCTION With the A/B compare function you can easily compare different parameter settings when you work with your music. You have two buttons: the "Mem" and the "A/B" button. When you start working with your preset, the A/B button is grayed out. This state indi- cates that the settings in both memory locations A and B are identical - so there is actually nothing to compare. -
Page 21: Parameter Lock At Recall
PARAMETER LOCK AT PRESET RECALL The parameter lock function allows you to lock the Dry Level, In Level and Out Level, from changing when you change preset. By using the parameter lock, you can easily browse through the extensive set of pre- sets that comes with the UNWRAP, without having to change the Dry Level, In Level or Out Level all the time. -
