Owner’s Manual

What Are ADD-ON EFFECTS?

ADD-ON EFFECTS are software packages that install additional high-quality effects programs on digital consoles.

What is Field Rotation

Field Rotation is one of the effects programs that can be used with ADD-ON EFFECTS. It virtually rotates the surround sound ﬁeld.

What is the Interactive Spatial Sound Processor (iSSP)?

iSSP is a technology that combines a geometric sound simulator that attenuates sound according to an estimate of the sound reﬂection that accompanies the shape of a room, taking into consideration the direction of the sound source and the room’s surface materials with multi-channel signal processor technology that uses information about the position of the sound source to perform distance attenuation based on the balance and delay/ﬁlter for each output channel. This iSSP technology is used in Field Rotation.
