Dolby

Dolby Digital

Dolby Digital is a multi-channel digital signal format developed by Dolby

Laboratories.
A total of 5.1-channels are played: 3 front channels (“FL”, “FR” and “C”), 2

surround channels (“SL” and “SR”) and the “LFE” channel for low

frequency effects.
Because of this, there is no crosstalk between channels and a realistic

sound field with a “three-dimensional” feeling (sense of distance,

movement and positioning) is achieved. This delivers a thrilling surround

sound experience in the home.

Dolby Digital Plus

Dolby Digital Plus is an improved Dolby Digital signal format that is

compatible with up to 7.1-channels of discrete digital sound and also

improves sound quality thanks to extra data bit rate performance. It is

upwardly compatible with conventional Dolby Digital, so it offers greater

flexibility in response to the source signal and the conditions of the

playback device.

Dolby Pro Logic

Dolby Pro Logic

is a matrix decoding technology developed by Dolby

Laboratories.
Regular music such as that on CDs is encoded into 5-channels to achieve

an excellent surround effect.
The surround channel signals are converted into stereo and full band

signals (with a frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz or greater) to create

a “three-dimensional” sound image offering a rich sense of presence for all

stereo sources.

Dolby TrueHD

Dolby TrueHD is a high definition audio technology developed by Dolby

Laboratories, using lossless coding technology to faithfully reproduce the

sound of the studio master.
This format provides the facility to support up to 8 audio channels with a

sampling frequency of 96 kHz/24 bit resolution and up to 6 audio channels

with a sampling frequency of 192 kHz/24 bit resolution.
