Sonic Focus Adaptive Dynamics™ (Stereo)
Everyone loves the convenience of today's portable devices; you can purchase with the click of a button and carry your media library wherever you go. However, that convenience has always come at the expense of audio fidelity - until now. Data compression algorithms remove critical audio information, leaving a flat, thin, and lifeless sound. Sonic Focus Adaptive Dynamics™ uses a "look-ahead" process to master the audio waveform and re-create the clarity and detail commonly lost in today's music, movies, and TV shows.
Sonic Focus X-Matrix™ (2.0, 2.1 or 3.1 channels)
Since the arrival of multi-channel speaker systems, scientists have been trying to imitate surround sound with stereo speakers. However, the most commonly used method for widening the sound field has a serious side-effect - the dialog is obscured. Sonic Focus X-Matrix™ expands the soundstage while adding a virtual center channel to emphasize the vocals or solo instruments. The result is a full, rich, and natural surround-sound experience with increased vocal clarity for headphones or stereo speakers.
Sonic Focus Extrapolator™ with Acoustical Modeling (5.1 or 7.1 channels)
Have you ever been to a rock concert and later longed to relive the roaring crowd and the "chest-thumping bass?" You rush to buy the concert DVD and to your disappointment, it was recorded in stereo. Sonic Focus Extrapolator™ utilizes advanced physical modeling techniques to expand stereo source material and create a lifelike multi-channel environment. Vocals and solo instruments become more pronounced in the front, while background effects and ambient details are emphasized in the rear.
