DOLBY SURROUND PRO LOGIC mode:
Choose this feature when playing Dolby Pro Logic
encoded movies and music (especially laser disc,
video tapes and TV broadcasts with Dolby Surround
sound). Most currently released video cassetles
and many TV broadcasts include this feature. Dolby
Pro Logic will not only give improved sound, it will
give a clear perception of the position and direction
of the original sound track.
Three types of centre mode are available when
using the Dolby Pro Logic feature, NORMAL WIDE
and PHANTOM. These options have programmed
surround (delay) values for the centre channel. The
delay (or echo effect) is different for each mode:
.The NORMAL mode gives true Dolby Pro Logic
sound.
.The WIDE mode can be used to gives greater
acoustic separation of the centre speaker-
.The PHANTOM mode diminishes the effect of
hearing a true centre channel. The main left and
right speakers give the effect of centre channel
information.
One other Pro Logic mode is available:
.The DOLBY 3 STEREO mode creates a Dolby
Pro Logic sound effect using just the left, right
and centre channels. No sound comes from the
surround channel speakers. You can still select
normal or wide effect in this mode.
