• DSP Modes
DAP modes
The sound heard in a concert hall, club, etc. consists of direct sound
and indirect sound_arly reflections and reflections from behind.
Direct sounds reach the listener directly without any reflection. On
the other hand, indirect sounds are delayed by the distances of the
ceiling and walls (see the diagram below). These indirect sounds are
the most important elements of the acoustic surround effects.
The DAP mode can reproduce a realistic sound field by adding these
indirect sounds.
