Digital Sound Field Processing (DSP) English Understanding Sound Fields A sound field is defined as the “characteristic sound reflections of a particular space.” In concert halls and other music venues, we hear early reflections and reverberations as well as the direct sound produced by the artist(s). The variations in the early reflections and other reverberations among the different music venues is what gives each venue its special and recognizable sound quality.
Digital Sound Field Processing (DSP) Hi-Fi DSP Programs Introduction Concert Hall 1 ■ Europe Hall A This is a large fan-shaped concert hall with approximately 2500 seats. There is relatively little reflection from the walls, and sound spreads finely and beautifully. Concert Hall 2 ■ U.S.A. Hall C Preparations This is a large 2600 seat concert hall in the United States which features a fairly traditional European design. The middle and high frequencies are richly and beautifully reinforced.
CINEMA-DSP English Sound Design of CINEMA-DSP Filmmakers intend the dialog to be located right on the screen, the effect sound a little farther back, the music spread even farther back, and the surround sound around the listener. Of course, all of these sounds must be synchronized with the images on the screen. CINEMA-DSP is an upgraded version of YAMAHA DSP specially designed for movie soundtracks.
CINEMA-DSP CINEMA-DSP Programs Introduction According to the input signal format, this unit automatically chooses the appropriate decoder and DSP sound field pattern.

CINEMA-DSP Program Group 7 Program Group 8 English Entertainment ■ Game This program adds a deep and spatial feeling to video game sounds. Concert Video ■ Classical/Opera This program provides excellent vocal depth and overall clarity by restraining excessive reverberation. The surround sound field is relatively moderate but it reproduces beautiful sound using data collected from a concert hall.
DSP Parameter Introduction You can enjoy good quality sound with the preset parameters. Although you do not have to change the initial settings, you can change some of the parameters to better suit the input source or your listening room. Changing Parameter Settings 1 Set PARAMETER/SET MENU to PARAMETER on the remote control. 2 Turn on your video monitor and press ON SCREEN to select the full display. 3 Select the sound field program you want to adjust.
DSP Parameter ROOM SIZE [P. ROOM SIZE for the presence sound field] Control Range 0.1 – 2.0 Description ......... As the sound is repeatedly reflected around a room, the larger the hall is, the longer the time between the original reflected sound and the subsequent reflections. By controlling the time between the reflected sounds, you can change the apparent size of the virtual venue. Changing this parameter from one to two, doubles the apparent length of the room.
DSP Parameter S. LIVENESS (Surround Liveness) Control Range 0 –10 Introduction Function .............. This parameter adjusts the apparent reflectivity of the virtual walls in the surround sound field. RC. INIT. DLY (Rear Center Initial Delay) Control Range 1 – 49 msec Function .............. This parameter adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection in the rear center sound field. RC. ROOM SIZE (Rear Center Room Size) Control Range 0.1 – 2.0 Function ..............
DSP Parameter REV. LEVEL (Reverberation Level) Control Range 0 – 100 % English Function .............. This parameter adjusts the volume of the reverberation sound. Description ......... The larger the value, the stronger the reverberation becomes. Level Sound Source REV. LEVEL Time CT. DELAY (Center Delay) Control Range 0 – 50 msec Function ..............
