Convention Paper

A High Performance Surround Sound Process for Home Video

Authors: Julstrom, Stephen

AES Convention 79 · Paper 2300 · October 1985

Abstract

Videodiscs, high-fidelity videocassettes, and stereo television bring to the consumer a substantial library of video entertainment with high quality stereo soundtracks. A growing portion of these are encoded with surround sound using a 4-2-4 matrix-based method particularly suited to front-stage oriented film/video presentation. Home reproduction is accomplished with a processor incorporating dynamic matrix modification to stabilize and enhance directional effects and a delayed surround channel to aid forward localization of front sound.
