Author Topic: Bridging two audio sources together into one NS input...doable?

Auditorium size? I can't imagine an LCD projector filling a theater-size screen and looking acceptable. Even most pre-show projectors lack the contrast and saturation of film, or even 3-chip-DLP. If you ARE a first run theater, shoot a few of those DVDs my way! =TMP=  |  IP: Logged Jean-Michel Grin Expert Film Handler Posts: 222 From: Geneva & Lausanne, Switzerland Registered: Jul 2002 posted 12-14-2004 04:29 PM                        Hi Everyone ! Just a Question, What kind Of sound Processor do You Use ? Certainly You don't use a Dolby CP500 or CP650. They have two non-sync Input. In Our auditoriums equiped with CP 65, we use a simple mixing desk or an best one RANE CP52 zoner: they are verry easy to use by just turning a knob to select the source. Alternatively if You use he dvd player for alternative content e.g. advertising, You could use te "magnetic input" of the CP65, but You will lose the matrix decoding of the Dolby. The best is to switch to CP 650, but is a question of $$$$ :-D In Our smalest theater, equiped with a CP65 we had to play a special feature recorded on digital betacam tape. the only solution was to disconect the cd player and connect the non-sync input of the Dolby to the sound output of the Beta player trought a isolating transformer to avoid ground loop hum... Good luck ant apologyse for my weak English !  |  IP: Logged
