Dolby® Digital Processing - Turtle Beach XP SEVEN User Manual

Dolby ® Digital Processing
The XP SEVEN uses Dolby® Digital surround processing technology – the industry-standard format for encoding multi-
channel game audio. Dolby Digital processing recreates 5.1 channel surround sound using the XP SEVEN headset so you
can hear the sound all around you, as if you were listening to a 5.1 speaker system.
