CINEMA DSP Programmes and THX Programmes
One of the main advantages of CINEMA DSP is the
large choice of sound field programmes available.
The basic programme for movies is Enhanced,
which greatly improves the sound of the surround
fields. The "largest" of these sound fields is
Spectacle, which recreates the open feeling of
large-scale, epic motion pictures. The Sci-Fi,
Adventure and General programmes provide the
optimum sound fields for those movie genres. There
are also THX programmes*.

based on the THX Theater processing developed for movie
