Movie Mode
The Movie mode in Pro Logic II is very similar to that of the original
Pro Logic decoder. The main difference is that it has stereo surround
channels and no surround filter, unlike Pro Logic which has a mono
surround channel and a 7 kHz surround filter. Movie mode is the
standard required for all A/V systems. When an auto sound unit has
a video screen, it is also considered an A/V system. It can be called
simply "Pro Logic II".
Music Mode
The Music mode offers users some flexibility to control the end
results to their own taste. Music mode should not be used with THX
audio processing mode. Music mode is recommended as the
standard mode for auto sound music systems (without video) and is
optional for A/V systems. It is recommended that Music mode be
identified as the "Music" version of Pro Logic II, to distinguish it
from the Movie mode.
Pro Logic Emulation Mode
The Pro Logic emulation mode offers users the same robust surround
processing as original Pro Logic, in case the source content is not of
optimum quality, or if there is a desire to hear the program more "as
it used to be". When this mode is used, it is called Pro Logic. There is
no "Pro Logic I" mode. The Pro Logic emulation mode is optional.
Dolby does not require PLII products to use the original Pro Logic
decoding algorithm. However, if the DSP contains the original Pro
Logic code, and if the product maker would like to use it, this is
quite acceptable and even encouraged. A product must not offer
both original Pro Logic and the Pro Logic emulation mode.
Matrix Mode
The Matrix mode is the same as the Music mode except that the
directional enhancement logic is turned off. It may be used to
enhance mono signals by making them seem "larger". The Matrix
mode may also find use in auto systems, where the fluctuations from
poor FM stereo reception can otherwise cause disturbing surround
signals from a logic decoder. The ultimate "cure" for poor FM stereo
reception may be simply to force the audio to mono.
