This makes it possible to express things that could not be expressed with conventional L/R 2-channel stereo, such as a sense of spaciousness, immersion, movement, and powerful bass. This draws the audience deeper into the content and transforms the audio into a truly visceral experience.
It is not strictly necessary to use source material recorded in surround sound; a sense of immersion and movement can be created by processing stereo or monaural audio.
Stereo downmixing is the process of creating 2-channel stereo by mixing the components from each speaker in a desired proportion based on a 5.1ch surround mix. Even with 5.1ch surround mixes, stereo mixes are often requested for screenings and other purposes. Our system enables the easy creation of stereo mixes.
For 5.1-channel DVDs, we currently support encoding in AC-3 format only; DTS is not supported.
When producing large quantities of 5.1-channel DVDs, the authoring company may require delivery in DTRS (Digital Tape Recording System) format.
We support delivery in DTRS format; please consult our staff for details.
Currently, the standard format for 5.1ch productions is DVCPRO HD. Please consult us in advance if you require delivery in a different tape format.
We support various versions of ProTools session data. For information regarding plug-in compatibility, please refer to the plug-in list found in the "Equipment List" section of the Recording page. If you are bringing audio files other than Pro Tools session data, please export all files to the same address (e.g., starting at 00 minutes 00 seconds) and bring them with you.
You may bring in 2-inch analog 24-track/16-track and 1/4-inch analog 2-track tapes. Please contact us regarding equalization, noise reduction, machine condition, and other details.
