Dolby Digital *_

Dolby Digital is a digital signal compression method, developed

center channel, luA strrmund channel, right strrmund channel, and
LP:E channel signals (tot&l 6 channels, but the LI_ channel is

counted ws O,I channel l'berefc_e, called 5,1 channel).
Dolby Digital enables stereo s_ound sounds, and sets the cutaff

frequency of the strrround treble at 20 kHz, compared to 7 kHz for
Dolby Pro Logic. As such, the sound movement and "being-tbere"

feeling are enhanced much m_re than Dolby Pro Logic.

Dolbz/DigitalEX

D_by _gital _ (DOLBY D EX) is a_gital surround enc_mg

expand the sound field natarally.

What is thml Mona?
Dual Mono can be easily und_vtstood when you think of the

bilingual broadcast c¢ the MTS (Multichannel lblevision Sound)
tlsed for I'V programs (howevar, the Dual Mono format is not
identical with those analog g_maats),
l'his fc_rmat is now adopted in 1N)lby Digital, DTS, and so om It
allows two independent channels ¢called main channel and stth-
