DSP Presence
DSP (Digital Signal Processor)
The DSP allows to synthesize the early reflection and reverberation sound signals in order to create various sound-field effects without
compromising the sound quality of music sources.
This unit provides two DSP Presence modes; the DSP mode and the DSP.LOGIC mode.
DSP mode:
Provides eight sound field patterns as well as the SYNTHETIC MOVIE THEATER and SYNTHETIC ARENA
modes for use with monaural sources.
DSP.LOGIC mode:
Applies a directivity enhancement to the DSP mode to enable even better acoustic image positioning. Eight
sound field patterns are available.
[Preset sound field effects using DSP|
This unit incorporates 10 kinds of preset sound field patterns, so that various sound field effects can be enjoyed by selecting a preset pattern
according to the music source. The main and sub parameters and parametric equalizers are adjusted according to the sound field effect
patters.
In addition, it is also possible to obtain desired sound field patterns by adjusting the parameters forming them. Refer to page 34 for the
parameters.
I Kinds and effects of preset sound field patterns |
Select an optimum sound pattern according to the music source.
Sound Field Pattern Effect
MOVIE THEATER Sound field of a high-quality movie theater.
JAZZ CLUB Early reflection sound is concentrated in the period from 20 to 70 millisec. A realistic and live
sound field.
DISCOTHEQUE Early reflection sound is concentrated in a short period, providing a concentrated feeling of energy
rather than expansion.
STADIUM The interval of early reflection sound is widely dispersed. A sound field like the sound from the
PA equipment in an outdoor stadium.
ARENA Sound field of a wide and deep ha II, where the interval of early reflection sound is widely dispersed.
The hall size may accommodate an audience of around 2500 people.
BALL ROOM A hall with a medium size accommodating an audience of around 1300.
OPERA HOUSE Sound field of an opera house, where the level of early reflection sound is high and the
reverberation after it attenuates slowly.
CATHEDRAL
Sound field of a large cathedral, whether the early reflection sound has a long delay and the
reverberation after it lasts for a long period.
SYNTHETIC MOVIETHEATER
SYNTHETIC ARENA
When playing a monaural source, use them in the DSP mode.
These patterns cannot be used in the DSP.LOGIC mode.
