Sound Field Program - Yamaha RX-V595aRDS Owner's Manual

This unit incorporates a sophisticated, multi-program digital sound field processor. This processor allows you to electronically
expand and change the shape of the audio sound field from both audio and video sources, creating a theater-like experience in
your listening room. You can create outstanding audio sound by selecting a suitable sound field program (this will, of course,
depend on what you are listening to) and adding any desired adjustments.
The operation of built-in decoders (Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital and DTS) can be controlled by selecting a corresponding DSP
program incorporating the combined operation of YAMAHA DSP and Dolby Surround, Dolby Digital or DTS.
The following list gives you a brief description of the sound fields produced by each of the DSP programs. Keep in mind that most
of these are precise digital re-creations of actual acoustic environments.

FEATURES
The built-in Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital or DTS
decoder precisely reproduces the sound and effect of
the encoded source.
The realization of a highly efficient decoding process
improves cross talk and channel separation and makes
sound positioning smoother and more precise.
This program ideally simulates the multi-surround
speaker systems of the 35 mm-film movie theater. Each
decoding and digital sound field processing operation is
precisely performed without altering the original sound
orientation.
The surround effect produced by the sound field folds
around the viewer naturally from the rear to the left and
right and toward the screen.
