1.5.1 Features and Benefits
SBX Pro Studio
SBX Pro Studio is specially designed to bring the same great audio
experience found in live performances, films, and recording studios - to the
PC.
SBX Pro Studio Surround
provides immersion control of sounds not just
around you, but also above and below for a full 3D audio experience. Hear the
natural sense of audio depth, spaciousness and stunning 3D surround effects
from your audio content. Enjoy an unbelievably true-to-life audio experience,
whether it's over stereo speakers or headphones.
SBX Pro Studio Crystalizer
restores the dynamic range that is lost when
iTunes and MP3 music gets compressed. This makes the music sound as
good as the artist originally intended, and adds an enhanced level of realism
for movies and games.
SBX Pro Studio Bass
fills in the low frequency tones and gives the extra
impact for a better entertainment experience. It dramatically improves the
sound experience without a subwoofer.
SBX Pro Studio Dialog Plus
enhances the voices in movies for clearer
dialog, allowing the listener to hear the dialog over the rest of the soundtrack
and over ambient noise in the listening environment.
SBX Pro Studio Smart Volume
addresses the problem of abrupt volume
level changes during playback and between songs by automatically and
continously measuring volume, and intelligently applying gain and attenuation
to compensate for those changes.
Dolby Digital Live
Dolby Digital
®
Live is a real-time encoding technology from Dolby Laboratories
that converts any audio signal into a Dolby Digital bitstream for transport and
playback through your home theater or digital speaker system.
