A large round concert hall with a rich surround effect. Pronounced reflections from all directions
emphasize the extension of sounds. The sound field has a great deal of presence, and your
virtual seat is near the center, close to the stage.
This is the sound field at stage front in "The Bottom Line", a famous New York jazz club, that
seats up to 300 people. Its wide left to right seating arrangement offers a real and vibrant sound.
The ideal program for lively, dynamic rock music. The data for this program was recorded at
LA's "hottest" rock club. The listener's virtual seat is at the center-left of the hall.
This program recreates the acoustic environment of a lively disco in the heart of a big city. The
sound is dense and highly concentrated. It is also characterized by a high-energy, "immediate"
sound.
Using this program increases the listening position range. This is a sound field suitable for
background music at parties, etc.
