Dolby Brings Next Generation Sound On PC

Dolby Laboratories today released its next-generation PC Entertainment Experience program, a suite of Dolby audio postprocessing and connectivity technologies.

Dolby launched the Dolby PC Entertainment Experience program more than four years ago to give people the freedom to enjoy surround sound in a variety of playback environments. Dolby has expanded its PC Entertainment Experience program to offer new ways to enhance and control listening experiences on the PC.

The latest updates to the Dolby PC Entertainment Experience program consist of second-generation Dolby Home Theater, which places listeners in the middle of the action, and second-generation Dolby Sound Room, which delivers a new personal listening experience from any pair of speakers or any set of headphones .

Among the updates to the Dolby PC Entertainment Experience program is Dolby Control Center, a graphic interface that features onscreen controls and interactive visuals for selecting speakers and fine-tuning surround sound effects.

Second-generation Dolby Home Theater now offers the following:

-- Sound Space Expander is a sound stage enhancer that produces a wide stereo image and in the process improves the separation of instruments without diminishing the center of the mix.

-- Natural Bass is a bass enhancement system for speakers and headphones that provides up to an octave of downward extension in the bass response of most speakers.

-- Dolby Pro Logic(R) IIx creates a 7.1-channel surround sound from any stereo (two-channel), 5.1, or 6.1 movie, music, TV, or game audio source.

-- Dolby Digital Live converts any audio signal from a PC or game console into Dolby Digital for easy connection to home theater systems through a single digital cable.

-- Dolby Headphone technology creates a personal surround sound experience using any set of headphones.

Second-generation Sound Room now offers the following:

-- Sound Space Expander is a sound stage enhancer that produces a wide stereo image and in the process improves the separation of instruments without diminishing the center of the mix.

-- Natural Bass is a bass enhancement system for speakers and headphones that provides up to an octave of downward extension in the bass response of most speakers.
