QXpander
QXpander widens the sound field of stereo music and provides 3D enhancement to 2D audio games. Using
this feature in combination with speakers providing "3D enhancement" may cause distortion and is not
recommended.
DVD QSurround
This feature will greatly enhance your listening experience when used during DVD playback in 2 speaker mode.
This feature will provide the sensation of a full-blown 5.1 speaker system by virtualizing the surround speakers.
For proper operation 5.1 output must be selected in the soft-DVD player's control panel.
QSurround requires a soft-DVD player capable of providing 5.1 channel output.
If your soft-DVD player does not offer 5.1 output mode then select "stereo' or "Pro-Logic mode" in the soft-DVD
player's control panel and select QXpander mode instead of DVD QSurround.
The Seismic Edge supports numerous playback modes for various speaker configurations. See the "DVD
Playback Modes" section of this manual for details.
4 Speakers
Select this if you have a 4 or 5 piece speaker system (stereo front left and right and rear/surround left and right
speakers and optional subwoofer). 3D sounds generated by compatible applications will processed to the
appropriate speaker and stereo sounds from applications will be expanded to four distinct channels using
QMSS.
Stereo sources from external inputs (CD In, Line In . . .) will not be expanded to the rear speakers unless the
source is selected in the "Apply Reverb/QXpander/QMSS to External Input Source:". Similarly the "Apply
QXpander/QMSS" box must be checked under "S/PDIF In" on the "S/PDIF" tab in order for S/PDIF In sources
to be expanded to all 4 speakers.
If your front or rear speakers are digital (S/PDIF) rather than analog then see the "S/PDIF" section of this
manual for additional instructions.
5.1 Speakers:
Select this mode if you have a 5.1 speaker system (front left, front center, front right, surround left and right
speakers and LFE/subwoofer). 3D sounds generated by compatible applications will processed to the
appropriate speaker and stereo sounds from applications will be expanded to 5.1 distinct channels using
QMSS.
Stereo sources from external inputs (CD In, Line In . . .) will not be expanded to the rear, center and LFE
speakers unless the source is selected in the "Apply Reverb/QXpander/QMSS to External Input Source:".
Similarly the "Apply QXpander/QMSS" box must be checked under "S/PDIF In" on the "S/PDIF" tab in order for
S/PDIF In sources to be expanded to all speakers.
If your front or rear speakers are digital (S/PDIF) rather than analog then see the instructions in the "S/PDIF"
section of this manual.
Be certain your Ce/LFE speakers are connected correctly when using this mode. (See
Connecting to your Seismic Edge Sound Card Section).
