APPENDIX Basic Knowledge of Surround Sound What is Surround Sound? What is a Digital Sound Projector? Yamaha’s Audio Technologies Surround sound offers the sense of being surrounded by sounds, an experience common in concert halls and movie theaters. This can be achieved by surrounding the audience with numerous speakers from which sound is output uniformly in all directions.
Glossary Sampling Frequency and Bit Depth Dolby Pro Logic IIx HDMI These are values that represent the amount of information used to convert analog signals to digital signals. They may be expressed as 48kHz/24bit, for example. This technology converts not only audio recorded in 2 channels, but also audio signal recorded in multiple channels to discrete 7-channel sound. There are three modes available: “Music mode” for music sources, “Movie mode” for movie sources and “Game mode” for game sources.
