1.2 Product Overview
The Waves DTS Neural DownMix plugin is primarily intended for downmixing from 7.1 or
5.1 surround to stereo. DTS Neural DownMix technology effectively processes 5.1 or 7.1
surround content into a 2-channel stereo mix that accurately represents the original
intent of the content creator.
Featuring the patented Active Correction technology, DTS Neural DownMix fixes
common stereo processing issues, such as comb filtering and spatial inaccuracies. The
result is a natural-sounding stereo mix that is spatially true to the original multichannel
content.
Key use cases:
Archiving
Network broadcasting

1.3 Concepts and Terminology
Surround channels are divided and displayed into different orders according to different
standards. The DTS Neural DownMix plugin supports the following surround channels:
5.1 – 6 Channels: Left, Right. Center, LFE, Left Surround, Right Surround
7.1 – 8 Channels: Left, Right. Center, LFE, Left Side Surround, Right Side
Surround, Left Surround, Right Surround
(7.1 support is according to ITU 159 and not the 7.1 SDDS format)
The meters within the plugin display the channels according to the ITU standard, which
may differ from the meter order displayed in your DAW. The plugin assures that the
correct input and output channels are routed correctly.
1.4 Components
WaveShell technology enables us to split Waves processors into smaller plugins, which
we call components. Having a choice of components for a particular processor gives
you the flexibility to choose the configuration best suited to your material.
The DTS Neural DownMix plugin has three components:
7.1 to 5.1
7.1 to Stereo
5.1 to Stereo
1.5 Sample Rate Support
The DTS Neural DownMix plugin supports 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz sample rates.
