Glossary

Digital Cinema Sound (DCS)
This is the generic name of the surround
sound produced by digital signal
processing technology developed by
Sony. Unlike previous surround sound
fields mainly directed at the reproduction
of music, Digital Cinema Sound is
designed specifically for the enjoyment of
movies.
Dolby Digital
This sound format for movie theaters is
more advanced than Dolby Surround Pro
Logic. In this format, the surround
speakers output stereo sound with an
expanded frequency range and a
subwoofer channel for deep bass is
independently provided. This format is
also called "5.1" with the subwoofer
channel designed as 0.1 channel (since it
functions only when a deep bass effect is
needed). All six channels in this format
are recorded separately to realize superior
channel separation. Furthermore, since all
the signals are processed digitally, less
signal degradation occurs.
Dolby Pro Logic II
Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-
bandwidth output channels from 2
channel sources. This is done using an
advanced, high-purity matrix surround
decoder that extracts the spatial properties
of the original recording without adding
any new sounds or tonal colorations.
