212 SURROUND SOUND
Example of use: Analytical chores, e.g. for routing after track bouncing or simultaneous
distribution of a signal over several surround channels. Distribution over 3-dimensional
alignments, e.g. 2+2+2 setup.
Con: No automation possible.
Deviating from the other modes the "Pan L/R" settings in "Matrix" mode mean:
Pan L/R mono: The levels of the left and right input signals are treated in parallel.
Pan L/R Stereo: The levels of the left and right input signals can be controlled individually.
The other "Pan L/R" settings have no individual function. The sounds are not mirrored.
2-channel surround mode
Two-channel surround is a method of conveying additional room information in a normal
stereo signal. No additional audio channels are required. The result is also a stereo format
including additional surround information (“encoded”).
Using a Dolby ProLogic-compatible amplifier system (also referred to as "Dolby Surround"),
the additional surround information can be decoded and played back via 4-5 speakers. In
addition to the stereo speakers there are then one or two further (rear) surround speakers
and an additional center speaker.
Dolby Surround ProLogic only supports one rear channel. If you have two rear speakers,
the same signal will be played back on both speakers.
The signal remains fully downward compatible to stereo playback: it can be played on any
system not fitted with Dolby Surround.
From a technical viewpoint the output signal is a regular stereo signal. No additional output
devices are required and, consequently, nor are surround busses / surround masters.
Samplitude can handle 2-channel surround tracks and normal tracks simultaneously. L and
R signals of the normal track are played back through the L and R speakers in surround
