5.1 Surround - Roland V-Mixer VM-C7100 Quick Start Manual

5.1 Surround

This system supports multi-speaker surround sound.
A normal stereo audio system consists of two speakers – left and right in
front of the listener – for stereo playback. A surround system creates a three-
dimensional sound field with three to six speakers located in the front and
rear, as well as to the left and right. You can create surround sound by
positioning and adjusting the Flex Bus outputs on the "SURROUND"
editing display.
