DownMix
Surround Audio Encoder
The DTS Neural Surround DownMix encodes 5.1 surround sound to a stereo mix that accurately represents the 5.1 original. Unlike standard summing methods, the DTS Neural SurroundTM DownMix creates stereo that contains surround steering information. This stereo audio can be stored, mixed, transported and monitored just like any other (Lt/Rt or Lo/Ro) stereo mix.
Key Features of the DownMix:
- Perfect mapping of 5.1 or 7.1 surround elements into the stereo field
- Active correction to fix issues such as comb filtering, spatial location and distortion.
- The conveniences of a matrix surround encode/decode system with the performance of modern day perceptual audio codecs.
- Backward compatibility with matrix decoders (Dolby® ProLogic II, SRS Circle Surround, etc.).
- End-to-end surround delivery system when combined with the DTS Neural SurroundTM UpMix
