Chavez Film God Posts: 2153 From: Martinez, CA USA Registered: Aug 2003 posted 10-18-2013 10:15 AM                       The final process is the room tuning or setup that uses a sophisticated analyzer specifically built for tuning Atmos setups. It does a number of tests and configures the installed house sound system for best results. I am going to a seminar on Atmos at the end of Showeast this coming week to gain a better understanding of the details.  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!!

There is just the practicality of expecting one to tune 60+ channels in a uniform manner as well as in a time/cost efficient manner.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 10-18-2013 02:18 PM                     quote: Steve Guttag No, Perspecta was Mono with steering. It also could vary the phase of each output channel thus creating a pseudo stereo effect much like those old RCA Mono to Stereo conversion LP's.  |  IP: Logged Pete Naples Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1565 From: Dunfermline, Scotland Registered: Feb 2001 posted 10-18-2013 03:43 PM                     I took the Atoms course last week Sam :-) 8 microphones!  |  IP: Logged Sam D.

Sounded awesome from the very start and just went back to see "Gravity" there in Dolby 3D and Atmos. Still perfect!  |  IP: Logged
